Description
Armed State Building: Confronting State Failure, 1898-2012
This book examines the history of international state-building campaigns by liberal powers, from the early 20th century to the present day. Paul D. Miller draws on his decade-long experience in the US military, intelligence community, and policy worlds to analyze what causes these efforts to succeed or fail.
Miller explores different types of state failure and the various levels of intervention that liberal states have tried in the state-building process, highlighting successes and failures from campaigns such as those in Mozambique, Namibia, Nicaragua, Angola, Liberia, Somalia, Iraq, and Afghanistan.
