Title	Promoting Democratic Governance and Preventing the Recurrence of Conflict: The Role of the United Nations Development Programme in Post Conflict Peace-Building
URL	http://www.eldis.org/fulltext/promotin...
Description	This article assesses the significance, promises and dilemmas of the governance agenda for [the United Nations Development Programme] and analyses the scope, promptings, and institutionalisation of democracy and governance programmes within UNDP, using Central America as a case study. It argues that the future of UNDP democracy assistance will largely depend on how successful it is at resolving the inherent tensions between democracy promotion and national sovereignty, while retaining its multilateral approach to peace and democracy. -From Abstract
