An analysis of social vulnerability in a multi-hazard urban context for improving disaster risk reduction policies
Timely interventions
While there has been a long engagement with the impact of time on peacebuilding policies and practice, this engagement has to date focused predominately on issues of short- versus long-term initiatives, and of waning donor support for such initiatives. More recently, the critical peacebuilding turn has focused attention on the politics of the everyday as being essential to emancipatory endeavours enacted through localisation. Yet despite this, ti…

Millennium development goals (MDGs) and indigenous peoples' literacy in Cambodia
Nation‐building throughout Southeast Asia has been undertaken in contexts where minority groups, living on the margins of society, are being forced into recent state constructions, and have had their cultures eroded as a result. The Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) for education have provided international benchmarks for literacy. These have been adopted by the Cambodian state, and a number of donors and NGOs have funded and enacted policies w…
Peacebuilding and NGOs
Analysing the relationship between civil society and the state, this book lays bare the assumptions informing peacebuilding practices and demonstrates through empirical research how such practices have led to new dynamics of conflict. The drive to establish a sustainable liberal peace largely escapes critical examination. When such attention is paid to peacebuilding practices, scholars tend to concentrate either on the military components of the …
The Pacification of Soldiering, and the Militarization of Development
Provincial reconstruction teams (PRTs) are a natural outgrowth of the security/development nexus and serve as an institutional response to a perceived need to listen to the new subjects of Northern security: the helpless Southern villager who is suffering from underdevelopment and insecurity. This article, through an analysis of primary interviews, oral histories of PRT workers, and official documents undertakes an examination of the different po…
Critical Voices and Human Security
Narratives of human security have been widely adopted and adapted within both academic and policy communities. Despite debates over its meanings and uses, the concept has proven to be remarkably resilient. In particular, there has a been a surprising willingness by critical scholars not only to analyse and critique human security, but also to embrace it as a means of furthering political goals. This article maps the ways in which various strands …
