Description: | Over the past five years, several major international development policy statements and declarations have adopted ‘political settlement’ as a framing concept to guide statebuilding practice in fragile and conflict-affected states, and encouraged efforts towards achieving an inclusive, or inclusive enough, political settlement in order to underpin stability.
Despite the policy enthusiasm, the concept itself
remains elusive.1 This discussion paper explores
how the concept ‘political settlement’ arose and
where it came from, identifies its essential elements
and the level of consensus around them and
tests out some of its normative content. Finally it
considers where the concept might go from here. |
