FRAGILE STATES AND DEVELOPMENT POLICY
提出分析脆弱国家的框架，并应用于不同类型国家的发展政策，帮助理解这些国家为何无法提供基本服务及政治暴力频发。
It is widely recognized that fragile states are key symptoms of under-development in many parts of the world. Such states are incapable of delivering basic services to their citizens and political violence is commonplace. As of yet, mainstream development economics has not dealt in any systematic way with such concerns and the implications for development assistance. This paper puts forward a framework for analyzing fragile states and applies it to a variety development policies in different types of states.
