Reviews

'Starting from the premise that international statebuilding efforts over the past three decades have relied on flawed theoretical assumptions and failed to achieve many of their objectives, this Handbook is a cornucopia of critical analyses and perspectives. With an emphasis on peace and conflict, it encompasses a wide array of international interventions where statebuilding is a component, like peacebuilding, military intervention, counterinsurgency, security sector reform, civilian protection, transitional justice, development and humanitarian action.'
