Peacebuilding Paradigms explores how seven paradigms from Comparative Politics, International Relations, and Policy Analysis can explain peacebuilding. It suggests a hybrid approach that incorporates insights from each paradigm to best explain success and failure.

Peacebuilding Paradigms delves into the examination of seven paradigms derived from the fields of Comparative Politics, International Relations, and Policy Analysis. These paradigms encompass Realism, Liberalism, Constructivism, Cosmopolitanism, Critical Theories, Locality, and Policy. The contributors engage in a comprehensive exploration of the arguments presented by each paradigm, subsequently comparing and contrasting them. This book proposes that a hybrid approach, which harnesses valuable insights from all these paradigms, offers the most effective means of understanding how and why peacebuilding projects and policies succeed in certain contexts, fail in others, and yield valuable lessons.

Rather than relying solely on theoretical frameworks, the authors employ case studies to illustrate the limitations of using a single paradigm as an explanatory model. This collection directly addresses the impact of peacebuilding theory on peacebuilding policies and provides valuable recommendations for best practices in future peacebuilding missions.
