This book analyses the changing dynamics of sovereignty resulting
from contemporary international state-building interventions. It
aims to highlight how the exercise of 'exceptional' forms of power
by intervening agencies impacts on the sovereign capacity of
intervened states. Drawing upon in-depth analyses of three case
studies - Kosovo, East Timor and the Kurdistan Regional Government,
the book shifts the focus of the debate to the nature of
contemporary intervention as an act of statemaking, and argues that
foreign intervention changes the dynamics of political power upon
which sovereignty is structured. At the same time, it reveals how
intervention reproduces the imposed conditions of international
state-making, thus permanently internalising external regulatory
mechanisms. International intervention, in other words, becomes the
constitutive element of governance in the newly created state. This
book will be of much interest to students of statebuilding, war and
conflict studies, global governance, security studies and IR.
