Effective and Conflict-Aware Stabilization
The CSIS Project on Fragility and Mobility researches, convenes civilian and military stakeholder discussions, and provides practical findings and recommendations on how the U.S. government can pursue more effective and conflict-aware stabilization
Stabilization is an “inherently political endeavor involving an integrated civilian-military process to create conditions where locally legitimate authorities and systems can peaceably manage conflict and prevent a resurgence of violence.”
Countries beset by instability from terrorist organizations or contested by state-based adversaries will continue to pose national security challenges to the United States. Facing political and budgetary constraints, the United States must be more selective and disciplined in how it scopes and executes stabilization in conflict-affected countries to ensure it meets clearly defined U.S. and partner political goals.
