TSCHIRGI, Necla. Peacebuilding: The Interface between Domestic and International Approaches. Revista Crítica de Ciências Sociais [online]. 2014, n.104, pp.21-44. ISSN 2182-7435.  https://doi.org/10.4000/rccs.5672.

This paper focuses on the chasm between domestic and international understandings and approaches to peacebuilding and the mixed outcomes that characterize contemporary efforts to assist war-torn countries. It argues that post-Cold War peacebuilding relies on a wide array of international actors with diverse interests and mandates which are not necessarily aligned with local realities or needs. Building on the rich literature on the role of external actors in conflict zones, the paper examines the interface between domestic and international actors through the concept of ‘hybridity’. It then reviews two mechanisms that aim to level the playing field between war-affected countries and international actors: the United Nations Peacebuilding Commission and the New Deal for Engagement with Fragile States.

Palabras clave : conflicts resolution; Fragile States; peacebuilding; Peacebuilding Commission.
