This chapter describes the manner in which post-war liberal peacebuilding intervention methodologies are struggling to engage with asymmetric power relationships between interveners and domestic counterparts and are serving the maintenance of injustice inside the global status quo of power, control, and wealth. The components of this dominant peacebuilding architecture are underpinned by international donors and foundations, which enact global policy and the interests of wealthy nations through networks of implementing UN agencies, Intergovernmental Organizations, militaries, non-governmental organizations, and other civil society organizations. Few scholars have taken the leap and called for abandoning the liberal peacebuilding project, but have rather explored potential reforms to peacebuiding methodology. Civil society organizations are a component of a state’s internal affairs. The sustainable pathway to peace requires meaningful inclusion from non-state civil society voluntary actors. Thus, the challenge ahead for international peacebuilding leaders is to chart a sustainable global economy that lessens North-South conflict and promotes just relationships. |
