摘要

关于某些弱国与其他弱国的区别，人们对其定义的差异很大，这使得关于表现不佳的国家的论述受到了影响。将国家从强到弱排序的指数掩盖了可能对干预政策产生不利影响的重要区别。这一缺陷可以通过根据国家地位在三个方面的表现对国家进行分组来解决:权威、合法性和能力。由此得出的分类将易受政权更迭影响的脆弱国家、通常被视为援助宠儿的贫困国家和经历严重内部暴力冲突的脆弱国家划分为三类。它还提供了一种可量化的方法来分析从一种状态类型到另一种状态类型的转换，从而获得更有洞察力的干预策略。

Categorization of states beyond strong and weak

The discourse on poor state performers has suffered from widely varying definitions on what distinguishes certain weak states from others. Indices that rank states from strong to weak conceal important distinctions that can adversely affect intervention policy. This deficiency is addressed by grouping states according to their performance on three dimensions of statehood: authority, legitimacy, and capacity. The resultant categorization identifies brittle states that are susceptible to regime change, impoverished states often considered as aid darlings, and fragile states that experience disproportionately high levels of violent internal conflict. It also provides a quantifiable means to analyze transitions from one state type to another for more insightful intervention policy.

期刊介绍： Stability: International Journal of Security & Development is a fundamentally new kind of journal. Open-access, it publishes research quickly and free of charge in order to have a maximal impact upon policy and practice communities. It fills a crucial niche. Despite the allocation of significant policy attention and financial resources to a perceived relationship between development assistance, security and stability, a solid evidence base is still lacking. Research in this area, while growing rapidly, is scattered across journals focused upon broader topics such as international development, international relations and security studies. Accordingly, Stability''s objective is to: Foster an accessible and rigorous evidence base, clearly communicated and widely disseminated, to guide future thinking, policymaking and practice concerning communities and states experiencing widespread violence and conflict. The journal will accept submissions from a wide variety of disciplines, including development studies, international relations, politics, economics, anthropology, sociology, psychology and history, among others. In addition to focusing upon large-scale armed conflict and insurgencies, Stability will address the challenge posed by local and regional violence within ostensibly stable settings such as Mexico, Brazil, Russia, India, Indonesia and elsewhere.
