作为对国家形成动力学的回应，在过去的二十年里，国家建设并没有像预期的那样创造出模范国家。相反，世界各地出现的国家在很大程度上取决于背景。尽管国际社会试图根据新自由主义国家模式主导的共同模式塑造它们，但情况依然如此。这就提出了一个问题，即国际国家建设和地方政治动态之间的相遇实际上形成了什么样的混合国家？本文认为，国际国家建设的目的是创造新自由主义国家和对待当地的政治动态功能失调。然而，从地方的角度来看，国家建设模式的局限性也是显而易见的，因为任何地方合法国家都需要立足于其背景。
As a response to the dynamics of state formation, statebuilding has not created model states in the last twenty years as was intended. Instead, the states that have emerged around the world are heavily contextually contingent. This is despite international attempts to shape them according to a common pattern, dominated by neoliberal models of statehood. This raises the question of what kind of hybrid states are actually forming as a result of the encounter between international statebuilding and local political dynamics? This article argues that international statebuilding aims to create neoliberal states and treats local political dynamics as dysfunctional. Yet from a local perspective the limitations of the statebuilding model are also apparent, as is the need for any locally legitimate state to be grounded in its context.
