Popular Governance of Post-Conflict Reconstruction: The Role of International Law(Cambridge Studies in International and Comparative Law)

Series: Cambridge Studies in International and Comparative Law

Under what conditions does a post-conflict government have authority? What challenges to its legitimacy does it face? To what standards can it be held accountable? Via case studies of Sierra Leone and Afghanistan, and detailed accounts of extant international law, Matthew Saul explores the international legal framework which regulates popular governance of post-conflict reconstruction.
