Building Capacities for Public Service in Post-Conflict Countries

This publication on ‘Building Capacities for Public Service in Post-Conflict Countries’ represents a more nuanced contribution to the discourse on post-conflict reconstruction by focusing on some of the most fundamental and earliest elements to be addressed in the conflict/post-conflict/reconstruction spectrum, namely: constitutional enshrinement of the character of government institutions; political will and leadership; and the necessity of inclusive and participatory processes for the articulation of national aspirations followed by their translation into an organizational structure for the new public service to fulfill them. The volume presents side-by-side a conceptual approach followed by in-depth descriptions by practitioners of how this has been achieved in a variety of post-conflict situations.
