キーワード：人間の安全保障、平和構築、国家建設、紛争後復興、国際協力、ウガンダ、シェラレオネ、ボスニア・ヘルツェゴヴィナ
1.Background
In the context of post-conflict reconstruction, donor countries and international organisations have played a vital role to support peacebuilding and statebuilding efforts. However, the interventions of the international communities have been criticised as linear cause-and-effect problem-solving models. Critiques argue that the liberal approach, guided by principles and pre-determined steps such as peace agreements, disarmament, constitutional reform, democratic elections and decentralisation has had a negative impact on local populations.
2.Main points to be discussed
Through four presentations including three case studies from post-conflict context, this session will discuss the impact and challenges of international cooperation in post-conflict peacebuilding and statebuilding from a human security perspective.
First, recent peacebuilding approaches that have emerged from critique of liberal peacebuilding and based on Complexity Theory will be analysed through the lens of human security. These approaches emphasize the need for locally-driven efforts and people-centred perspective.
Second, the case of Uganda argues that the reintegration and reconciliation support for former child soldiers has been uniformly focused on vocational training, which has not had the expected impact. It suggests that a people-centred approach may be required.
Third, in post-conflict Sierra Leone, while donors are promoting decentralization, the government has intended to pursue centralization in areas outside of donor interest. This situation has hindered the achievement of human security.
Lastly, the impact of Dayton Constitutional Regime in Bosnia and Herzegovina will be presented. This regime may have threatened the human security of ethnic minorities as the constitution restrict their voting rights.
3.Expected outcome of the session
The expected outcomes of this session are as follows. Identifying the limitations of the donor-led liberal peacebuilding and state-building approach through the concrete case studies. Highlighting the importance of non-linear and human security-oriented approaches in post-conflict reconstruction and provide a pathway to more effective and sustaining peacebuilding and statebuilding support.
