REPORT


Governance and Limited Statehood Series Series editors: Thomas Risse, Professor of International Politics, Freie Universität Berlin, Germany Ursula Lehmkuhl, Professor of Modern History, Freie Universität Berlin, Germany This ground-breaking monograph series showcases cutting edge research on the transformation of governance in countries with weak state institutions.

Instead, the series focuses on governance in Africa, Asia and Latin America including transnational and transregional dimensions. Located at the intersection of global governance and international relations, on the one hand, and comparative politics, area studies, international law, history, and development studies, on the other, this innovative series helps to challenge fundamental assumptions about governance in the social sciences.
