Authors:
- The first critical appraisal of this scope of the concept of peace infrastructures since it entered mainstream peace-building through its adoption by UNDP
- Argues that the model of peace infrastructure which has come to dominate the discourse and practice is deeply statist, and sees peace infrastructures as a more efficient means to liberal peace-building
- Adds to the already significant post-liberal peace discourse a more pointed discussion on statism, and approaches its subject not from a post-structuralist but from neo-Weberian and sociocultural evolutionary angle
