Severine Autesserre
“The Congo case is representative of a broader problem with international interventions. International peacebuilders often neglect to address the local causes of violence.”
Severine Autesserre, The Trouble with the Congo: Local Violence and the Failure of International Peacebuilding

Severine Autesserre
“International peacebuilders have their own world, with its own rituals, its own customs, its own beliefs, its own roles, its own stars, its own villains, its own rules, its own taboos, its own meeting places – in brief, its own culture.”
Severine Autesserre, The Trouble with the Congo: Local Violence and the Failure of International Peacebuilding
