Summary/Abstract |
There is a growing body of literature dedicated to critiquing liberal peacebuilding. This paper revisits the current post-conflict peacebuilding agenda in light of these critiques, outlining how both proponents and opponents perceive three core principles, that is, democratisation, economic liberalisation and state-building. Drawing attention to the emergence of arguments for alternative approaches, this paper argues that recent developments provide some hope for reconciling proponents of the liberal agenda with their growing legion of critics.
