Its failure to tailor interventions to Timor-Leste's specific political economy and conflict dynamics distanced the state from its citizens and undermined its capacity to forge a political settlement founded on a robust social contract. At a time in which conflict-affected states are receiving unprecedented attention and peacekeeping operations and humanitarian emergencies are becoming increasingly complex, this book argues that radical changes are urgently required in the way the international community operates in these environments. The findings are rooted in an examination of the mechanisms used by international development actors in Timor-Leste between 1998 and 2006. In bringing together wide-ranging perspectives, the author shows that international actions cannot be separated from the local political and socio-economic context, demonstrating that interventions are never 'apolitical' and that peacebuilding must be intentional. Indeed, political settlements premised on a robust social contract should not be taken for granted anywhere. The impact of increasing disenfranchisement, mistrust in institutions and structural inequalities evident in the global North suggest that lessons from peacebuilding in Timor-Leste are relevant far beyond its shores. This book is essential for students and researchers in the fields of development studies, international political economy, peacebuilding and conflict resolution, and for practitioners and policy makers striving to advance peace"-- $c Provided by publisher. 610 20 $a United Nations Mission in East Timor. 610 27 $a United Nations Mission in East Timor. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00759445 650 0 $a Peace-building $z Timor-Leste $x International cooperation. 650 0 $a Non-governmental organizations $z Timor-Leste. 650 0 $a Political violence $z Timor-Leste. 651 0 $a Timor-Leste $x Politics and government $y 2002- 650 7 $a Non-governmental organizations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01038524 650 7 $a Political violence. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01069902 650 7 $a Politics and government. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919741 651 7 $a Timor-Leste. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01733528 648 7 $a Since 2002 $2 fast 776 08 $i Online version: $a Engel, Rebecca Ellen, $t 2006 crisis in East Timor $d Abingdon, Oxon ; New York, NY : Routledge, 2021. $z 9780429490903 $w (DLC) 2020014973 830 0 $a Routledge research on Asian development ; $v 8. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220526013554.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A39ACE3AFFE911EBB6EAFDEE22ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
