Thesis (M.D.E.)--Dalhousie University (Canada), 2000
This thesis discusses the current trends in international intervention in post-conflict environments, particularly in Bosnia Herzegovina. Specifically it discusses the social-civil dimension of post-conflict rehabilitation and the attitudes and agendas that impact implementation of social-civil projects. I contend that current international interventions do not fully incorporate social-civil aspects in post-conflict rehabilitation for a variety of reasons including: lack of understanding of the importance of these efforts; short-term time frames which don't allow for comprehensive inclusion of social-civil initiatives; and institutional mindsets that hinder implementation of social-civil initiatives. Case studies are presented and recommendations are given
