About the Book
In
A Post-Liberal Peace
, Monalisa Adhikari shows how rising powers like India and China are reshaping global peace governance.
Over recent decades, both countries have deepened engagement with institutions built on liberal principles, including those related to peacebuilding. Their growing role raises critical questions about how their approaches diverge from liberal models and their impact on the domestic politics of conflict-affected states.Focusing on India and China’s involvement in peace processes in Nepal and Myanmar, Adhikari demonstrates that these powers advance distinctive, state-centered programs that privilege regional stakeholders, stability, development, and pragmatism. Operating under conditions of “negotiated coexistence” with liberal peacebuilders, their initiatives neither fully align with nor openly contest existing actors, limiting cooperation while avoiding confrontation. This pluralized form of international engagement enables domestic elites to resist external pressures, producing hybrid peace orders that incorporate some liberal elements yet remain largely at the status quo—and often illiberal.Rich with archival and interview evidence,
A Post-Liberal Peace
sheds light on alternative forms of peacebuilding and their on-the-ground effects in an increasingly multipolar world.

Editorial Reviews
“Bringing into the literature a wide range of new voices and works,
A Post-Liberal Peace
weaves conceptual innovation and empirical insight together in compelling, ambitious ways.”
—Naazneen Barma, author of
The Peacebuilding Puzzle
“
A Post-Liberal Peace
helps to address a major deficit in previous literatures, which tend to be Western-oriented and policy-driven. This book helps put recent post–Cold War efforts into a new perspective.”
—Oliver Richmond, author of
The Grand Design
“This book is a must-read for anyone thinking about how the growing involvement of emerging, non-Western powers in conflict management and peacebuilding shapes not only outcomes on the ground but also the global peacebuilding architecture.”
—Dominik Zaum, University of Reading
