This book explores the contradictions that emerge in
international statebuilding efforts in war-torn societies.
Since the end of the Cold War, more than 20 major peace
operations have been deployed to countries emerging from internal
conflicts. This book argues that international efforts to construct
effective, legitimate governmental structures in these countries
are necessary but fraught with contradictions and vexing dilemmas..
Drawing on the latest scholarly research on postwar peace
operations, the volume:
- addresses cutting-edge issues of statebuilding including
coordination, local ownership, security, elections, constitution
making, and delivery of development aid
- features contributions by leading and up-and-coming
scholars
- provides empirical case studies including Afghanistan,
Cambodia, Croatia, Kosovo, Liberia, Sierra Leone, South Africa, and
others
- presents policy-relevant findings of use to students and
policymakers alike
The Dilemmas of Statebuilding will be vital reading for students
and scholars of international relations and political science.
Bringing new insights to security studies, international
development, and peace and conflict research, it will also interest
a range of policy makers.
