1 IS806 / G100 State Failure and Reconstruction: Comparative Perspectives Simon Fraser University School for International Studies Fall Term 2011 Wednesday (HC 1525) Instructor: Onur Bakiner (obakiner@sfu.ca) Office Hours: Wednesdays at HC Description: State failure and state building have become keywords in the popular media and academic circles since the mid-1990s to refer to the challenges domestic publics and the international community face today. This graduate seminar will provide an overview of the general conceptual, normative and practical debates on statehood, state capacity, state failure and state building. Some of the central questions of the course will be: What constitutes state capacity? What, if anything, does state failure mean? Why are some states more capable than others in the provision of freedom, security and public goods? When and why do states fail? What does state building entail? How can a failed state be rebuilt, especially in the wake of conflict? Does the international community have a right and/or obligation to intervene in the case of state failure? What is the relationship between socioeconomic development and state building? What are the implications of state failure and state building for human rights, the rule of law, and the provision of justice? As we shall see, scholars address these questions through a variety of perspectives. We will begin with conceptual discussions of what state, state failure and state building mean. Then we will explore the historical development of the modern state in different parts of the world. The majority of the readings deal with contemporary issues on state failure and state building, employing approaches and tools from a variety of disciplines. The course will deepen our understanding of state institutions, development, conflict and post-conflict reconstruction, and we will have a better grasp of the current issues at hand. Requirements: The grading will consist of a midterm (25% of the total grade), a writing assignment (25%), a final paper (40%), and participation (10%). The midterm will consist of two parts: (i) short-answer questions that test students mastery of the basic debates and terms; and (ii) essay questions that allow the students to synthesize the material learned in class. The writing assignment and the final paper will be essays that engage debates on state building and state failure. 1
2 The participation grade consists of regular attendance as well as active participation in the classroom. Since this is a graduate seminar, much of the course time will be devoted to class discussion. Therefore it is absolutely necessary that each student participate actively. Each student will be asked to make a short presentation on one of the relevant themes of the class. Week 11 is devoted to student presentations on a selected topic (see below). Readings: The readings are a mixture of books, academic articles and field papers. The books that we will refer to extensively (see below) will be available at the SFU bookstore. There will also be a courseware that contains book chapters. I will make available online as much of the readings as possible.

Promptness and Excuse Policy: Please make sure to be on time for class, as well as tutorials. Students who arrive more than 5 minutes late will not be admitted to class. Students are allowed to take make-up exams only when they have a serious excuse (e.g. personal illness or death in the family), and when they bring an official document to prove the excuse (e.g. hospital certification). Academic Integrity: All students taking courses in International Studies are expected to read and understand the University s policies regarding academic integrity. Cheating and plagiarism will not be tolerated under any circumstance! There are clear rules and regulations of the University to punish offenders of academic honesty.
