Whither Stabilisation and Reconstruction? A British Perspective
Richard Teuten, senior visiting fellow at the UK’s Royal United Services Institute and former Head of the UK Stabilisation Unit, has just completed an assessment of how the United Kingdom has sought to stabilize conflict-affected countries over the last 13 years. Drawing on this evidence he has assessed the options for addressing weaknesses and provides recommendations on the following issues:
- How to develop the right people to work in hostile stabilization environments, including balancing military and civilian capabilities
- How to achieve civil-military integration and unity of effort in theater
- How to fund conflict prevention and stabilization strategies
- Can aid be used to provide a security effect and promote stability
