Understanding Statebuilding (eBook, ePUB)

Traditional Governance and the Modern State in Somaliland

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Much analysis of state building focusses on dissecting specific projects and attempting to identify what has gone 'wrong' in states such as Afghanistan and Iraq. What draws less attention is what has gone 'right' in non-interventionist statebuilding projects within 'unrecognised' states. By examining this model in more depth a more successful model of statebuilding emerges in which the end goal of modern democracy and good governance are more likely to be realized. Indeed 'states-within-states' such as Somaliland where external intervention in the statebuilding process is largely absent can provide vital new lessons.

She has lectured at the University of Bristol, the University of the West of England, the University of East Anglia and the University of Lancaster. Her work focuses on statebuilding in Somaliland, specifically focusing on the utilization of the clan and traditional authority in post-conflict stabilization in the territory and in the facilitation and stabilization of the statebuilding process. She also works more broadly on critical interpretations of statebuilding, unrecognized states, and state failure.
