This volume examines and evaluates the impact of international
statebuilding interventions on the political economy of
post-conflict countries over the past 20 years. While statebuilding
today is typically discussed in the context of 'peacebuilding' and
'stabilisation' operations, the current phase of interest in
external interventions to (re)build and strengthen governmental
institutions can be traced back to the 'good governance' policies
of the International Financial Institutions (IFIs) in the early
1990s. These sought political changes and improvements in the
quality of governance in countries that were subject to, or were
seeking support under, IFI-designed structural adjustment
programmes. The focus of this book is specifically on
state-building efforts in conflict-affected countries: countries
that are emerging, or have recently emerged, from periods of war
and violent conflict. The interventions covered in the present
volume fall into three broad and overlapping categories:
International administrations and transformative occupations (East
Timor, Iraq, and Kosovo); Complex peace operations (Afghanistan,
Burundi, Haiti, and Sudan); Governance and state-building
programmes conducted in the context of economic assistance (Georgia
and Macedonia). This book will be of much interest to students of
statebuilding, humanitarian intervention, post-conflict
reconstruction, political economy, international organisations and
IR/Security Studies in general.
