Saul: Popular Governance of Post-Conflict Reconstruction: The Role of International Law

Matthew Saul (Univ. of Oslo - Law) has published Popular Governance of Post-Conflict Reconstruction: The Role of International Law (Cambridge Univ. Press 2014). Here's the abstract:
Under what conditions does a post-conflict government have authority? What challenges to its legitimacy does it face? To what standards can it be held accountable? Via case studies of Sierra Leone and Afghanistan and detailed accounts of extant international law, Matthew Saul explores the international legal framework which regulates popular governance of post-conflict reconstruction.
