Revisiting Liberal Peacebuilding: BRICS and Turkey in Somalia

Abstract

Maintaining and providing peace and security in conflict-affected states are among the most crucial missions of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC). Among the methods of peacemaking and peacekeeping it employs, the UNSC also offers peacebuilding, which consists of helping conflict-affected states that are making the transition from war to peace. Unlike great powers that prioritize military intervention in their peacebuilding strategy, the Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa (BRICS) and Turkey as models to rising powers prefer a political, institutional and economic development rather than military intervention, which makes their peacebuilding strategy liberal. Despite this general adoption of liberal peacebuilding however, their practices in Somalia are different. Turkey has taken more liberal peacebuilding steps in Somalia than the BRICS, both in terms of approach and quantity. This article analyzes the liberal peacebuilding strategies of the BRICS and Turkey, and explores how these strategies have been implemented in Somalia.
