Abstract
Locations as diverse as East Timor and Sierra Leone, the Congo and Iraq, Liberia and Afghanistan might be conceived as targets of what is now constructed in discourse as the liberal peace project — interventionist, cosmopolitan, and largely in the hands of Europeans and North Americans — despite the diversity of practices deemed applicable to each case. Ranging from invasion and occupation, to institutional transformation, to the rebuilding of social infrastructures, and varying combinations thereof, the project is clearly multiple in its modes of articulation, has involved a number of agencies, from states to international institutions to non-governmental organisations, and is driven by the desire to realise social transformation beyond violent conflict.
