application/pdfEdward Hedger, Philipp Krause and Heidi TavakoliWhat does it take to fix fragile states? This question has emerged as a top priority in current international development thinking and practice. In its recent White Paper (2009), for example, the UK Government has pledged to allocate at least 50% of new bilateral funding to fragile states.
Mired by poor governance, weak institutions, lack of accountability and ineffective political processes linking state and society, fragile states are a leading source of instability (both internal and external), poverty and social, political and/or economic underdevelopment. Very often, they are also characterised by conflict.
In these particular settings, the international community faces the dual task of promoting peace while helping to build more effective, inclusive and responsive states. This has led to a growing realisation among donors that their peace-building and state-building interventions should be brought closer together – ‘state-building for peace’, as the UN Development Programme (UNDP) has put it.What does it take to fix fragile states?
