Is the weak state security dilemma an inescapable condition?

category

other

options

  1. The failure of liberal reform has highlighted the increasing viability of the option of alternative forms of political organization beyond the state. Sub-state organizations are a practical solution to dealing with regions with endemic problems of weapons and poverty, whilst regional organization is a sustainable structural form in Africa and Latin America.
  2. The Global War on Terror has had a positive effect on the state-building project. The fight against terrorism has redirected international attention and resources towards eradicating insecurities as part of the recognition of the multilevel factors facilitating the emergence of terrorism. Specifically this involves the controlling of the proliferation of arms.
  3. The problems of weak state insecurity have taken a low priority on the international agenda and solutions have not moved beyond the context of liberal multi-party democracy and free market capitalism. The problem thus far is that no one case of enforced neo-liberalism, either through conditionalities, regime change, peace-building, has succeeded in transforming a weak state into a strong state.
  4. Weak states can become strong by adopting autocratic forms of governance and suppressing internal dissent.
  5. The security dilemma of weak states can be solved by pooling their resources and forming regional security alliances.
  6. Weak states have embarked on a protracted and difficult process to attain effective status. Long term security strategies have resulted in the adoption of measures to counteract the worst of the effects including the establishment of multi parties, economic liberalization and membership of the international community.
  7. The weak state security dilemma is a myth, propagated by strong states to maintain global hegemony.
  8. The international community has largely ignored the security dilemma of weak states, focusing instead on expanding global trade networks.
  9. Weak states are not inherently insecure; it's their handling and response to security threats that determine their stability.
  10. The rise of non-state actors like transnational corporations and international non-governmental organizations has effectively made the concept of state security obsolete.
