Reviews

Many de facto and de jura governments in the international system are operated by various elites who, having seized the state apparatus, plunder resources; corrupt national legitimacy and viability; and facilitate individual/clique profiteering, group supremacy, ethnic and/or theocratic revenge, ruthless control, and exploitation of the population. Contrast this with the perhaps imperfect nation-building and institutional development brilliantly examined here. (Jesse Goldstaub, Retired International Operations Advisor)
