The rule of law is indispensable for sustained peace, good
governance, and economic growth, especially in countries recovering
from civil war. Yet despite its importance, we know surprisingly
little about how to restore the rule of law in the wake of
conflict. In this book, Robert A. Blair proposes a new theory to
explain how the international community can help establish the rule
of law in the world's weakest and most war-torn states, focusing on
the crucial but often underappreciated role of the United Nations.
Blair tests the theory by drawing on original household surveys in
Liberia, highly disaggregated data on UN personnel and activities
across Africa, and hundreds of interviews with UN officials, local
leaders, citizens, and government and civil society
representatives. The book demonstrates that UN intervention can
have a deeper, more lasting, and more positive effect on the rule
of law than skeptics typically believe.
