In development, stabilization, and peace building, donors
increasingly recognize the importance of being sensitive to the
local contexts of their efforts. Yet the use of "blueprints"
remains widespread. Even when standard approaches are modified for
particular aid partners, there often remains a poor fit between
donor efforts and local conditions. When recipients cannot absorb
the aid and attention they are offered, the common response is
"capacity building." While it is true that many aid recipients do
not have adequate capacity for implementation, this report presents
the results of a case study demonstrating that some security and
justice programs are designed and implemented without an adequate
appreciation of local desires, resources, capabilities, and
challenges. Absorptive capacity, in other words, is a byproduct of
the donor-recipient relationship. An earlier study by the authors
introduced a new framework for measuring absorptive capacity. This
volume applies it to security and justice sector programs that did
not meet all of their objectives in Lebanon, Cambodia, and
Colombia.
