Summary

This article explores the dual responsibility of interventions to rebuild and rehabilitate the state while also supplying political, ethnic, and socio-economic reforms. It argues that preserving and protecting human security is more than just a question of infrastructure, and that it also requires actions targeted at maintaining social harmony, equal status, and equitable access to resources and decisionmaking.
