Sommario/riassunto

In fragile states, domestic and international actors sometimes take the momentous step of sharing sovereign authority to provide basic public services and build the rule of law. While sovereignty sharing can help address gaps in governance, it is inherently difficult, risking redundancy, confusion over roles, and feuds between partners when their interests diverge. In this book, John D. Ciorciari sheds light on how and why these extraordinary joint ventures are created, designed, and implemented.
