近年来，国际干预者在（被认为）更偏远和危险的南方地区的“掩体”援助营地的墙后的物质和社会撤退一直是越来越多的批评关注的焦点。在西方国家和组织中，一种日益疏远和恐惧的风险厌恶和分化文化，在很大程度上被认为是这一系列做法背后的驱动力。本文通过关注南方各州在这一过程中的作用，提出了一个不同的视角来看待燃料化现象。本研究探讨了中非东部的碉堡化，特别是埃塞俄比亚的索马里东部地区，不仅强调了非洲国家如何成为现代碉堡化的主要推动者，而且强调了碉堡化的行为和心态如何在历史上成为许多非洲边境地区和当代国际干预地点被纳入全球国家体系的特征。
The physical and social retreat of international interveners behind the walls of ‘bunkered’ aid compounds in (putatively) more remote and dangerous regions of the South has been the focus of growing critical attention in recent years. An increasingly remote and fearful culture of risk aversion and differentiation among Western states and organizations has been largely identified as the driving force behind this set of practices. This article presents a different perspective on the bunkerization phenomenon through focusing on the agency of Southern states in the process. Exploring bunkerization across eastern/central Africa—and in Ethiopia’s eastern Somali region in particular—the study emphasizes not only how African states have been key promoters of modern bunkerization, but also how bunkerization behaviour and mentalities have historically characterized how many African borderlands—and contemporary sites of international intervention—have been incorporated into the global state system.
