The Remake of a Stateactors currently involved in Nepal can pay more careful attention to whenplanning their engagement. There are, of course, many other ways theinternational actors can make an impact in this transition.5. Role of international actorsCountries in post-conflict situation, by definition, are in an unstableenvironment. They are usually divided, as can be seen in the cases oftoday’s Sri-Lanka and Nepal, or South Africa in the aftermath of end ofapartheid regime. More than often, international actors get involved inthese countries, sometimes facilitating the peace process, and sometimesfurther complicating it! But assuming the international actors are therewith good intentions, they will have to recognise that different domesticstate actors will have different pathways to stability, some more compatiblethan others with internationally accepted standards of human rights anddemocratic values. Whichever the pathway, however, it is likely to beshaped, at least partly, by economic performance. International actorstherefore are likely to be more effective in their missions if they also haveeconomic incentives in their agenda that work towards economic capacitydevelopment of the country, that continue even after three to four yearsof end of conflict, as argued above. This sort of incentive is still limited inNepal, as most of the involvement is getting, it appears, more and morepolitical lately.Successful state building will almost always be the product of domesticaction, though it can be significantly enabled by well-targeted, responsiveinternational assistance. Ultimately, it is the local leaders who drivenational political processes. International intervention can providetechnical assistance to such processes. New entities such as the MediationSupport Unit at the UN Department of Political Affairs are recognising theimportance of this assistance. In case of Nepal, a special mission calledUNMIN was created to support the peace process. It was establishedin response to the letter to the Secretary-General sent in August 2006,in which the then Seven-Party Alliance Government and the then CPN(Maoist) requested United Nations’ assistance in creating a free andfair atmosphere for the election to the CA and the entire peace process.However, now in its fourth year in Nepal, the role of UNMIN has not beenwithout controversies. It has been more than once criticised for lack ofimpartiality and independence on some sensitive issues of peace process.But it has in many ways played a commendable role in mediation andfacilitation in this process. This kind of third-party mediation has attracted309
The long and winding road of state buildinga growing body of research lately. A critical examination of the rolesof international, regional, bilateral and national actors in post-conflictstate building is warranted to identify areas for more concrete policyconcentration. Even a cursory examination of recent efforts, however,highlights the central role of neighbours (for example, India and Chinain case of Nepal) in shaping the diplomatic, economic and even politicaloptions available for policy.6. Finally...State building in post-conflict situation is not only a critically importantfunction, but, also, at the same time, a highly challenging one. Thecomplexity and context specificity of the process, as well as limits ofexternal influence, mean that this is a terrain that requires sustained andserious efforts, which could take years and be not straightforward. As such,it warrants serious and transdisciplinary research and policy innovation.It could be cumbersome and lengthy, but successes will contribute tohuman security, development and even international stability. All thesebenefits are worth of receiving substantial national and internationalengagement.ReferencesCollier P. 2008. Post-conflict economic policy. In: Call CT, Wyeth V, editors.
