Addressing ethnic divisions in post-conflict institution building:   lessons from recent cases 

 -  2005 
<br/><br/> Examines how ethnic divisions have been addressed in recent cases of institution-building directed by international forces following military intervention: Bosnia, Kosovo, Afghanistan, and Iraq. Finds that an 'assumption of intransigence' has tended to make difficult situations worse by anticipating problems that may not even exist.
