Unpacking the major debates, this Oxford Handbook brings together
leading authors of the field to provide a state-of-the-art guide to
governance in areas of limited statehood where state authorities
lack the capacity to implement and enforce central decision and/or
to uphold the monopoly over the means of violence. While areas of
limited statehood can be found everywhere - not just in the global
South -, they are neither ungoverned nor ungovernable. Rather, a
variety of actors maintain public order and safety, as well as
provide public goods and services. While external state 'governors'
and their interventions in the global South have received special
scholarly attention, various non-state actors - from NGOs to
business to violent armed groups - have emerged that also engage in
governance. This evidence holds for diverse policy fields and
historical cases. The Handbook gives a comprehensive picture of the
varieties of governance in areas of limited statehood from
interdisciplinary perspectives including political science,
geography, history, law, and economics. 29 chapters review the
academic scholarship and explore the conditions of effective and
legitimate governance in areas of limited statehood, as well as its
implications for world politics in the twenty-first century. The
authors examine theoretical and methodological approaches as well
as historical and spatial dimensions of areas of limited statehood,
and deal with the various governors as well as their modes of
governance. They cover a variety of issue areas and explore the
implications for the international legal order, for normative
theory, and for policies toward areas of limited statehood.
