State-Building: Governance and World Order in the 21st Century
Francis Fukuyama famously predicted "the end of history" with the ascendancy of liberal democracy and global capitalism. The topic of his latest book is, therefore, surprising: the building of new nation-states. The end of history was never an automatic procedure, Fukuyama argues, and the well-governed polity was always its necessary precondition. "Weak or failed states are the source of many of the world's most serious problems," he believes. He traces what we know―and more often don't know―about how to transfer functioning public institutions to developing countries in ways that will leave something of permanent benefit to the citizens of the countries concerned. These are important lessons, especially as the United States wrestles with its responsibilities in Afghanistan, Iraq, and beyond. Fukuyama begins State-Building with an account of the broad importance of "stateness." He rejects the notion that there can be a science of public administration, and discusses the causes of contemporary state weakness. He ends the book with a discussion of the consequences of weak states for international order, and the grounds on which the international community may legitimately intervene to prop them up.

About the author
Francis Fukuyama
102 books2,354 followersYoshihiro Francis Fukuyama (born 27 October 1952) is an American philosopher, political economist, and author.
Francis Fukuyama was born in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Chicago. His father, Yoshio Fukuyama, a second-generation Japanese-American, was trained as a minister in the Congregational Church and received a doctorate in sociology from the University of Chicago. His mother, Toshiko Kawata Fukuyama, was born in Kyoto, Japan, and was the daughter of Shiro Kawata, founder of the Economics Department of Kyoto University and first president of Osaka Municipal University in Osaka. Fukuyama's childhood years were spent in New York City. In 1967 his family moved to State College, Pennsylvania, where he attended high school.
Fukuyama received his Bachelor of Arts degree in classics from Cornell University, where he studied political philosophy under Allan Bloom. He earned his Ph.D. in government from Harvard University, studying with Samuel P. Huntington and Harvey C. Mansfield, among others. Fukuyama has been affiliated with the Telluride Association since his undergraduate years at Cornell, an educational enterprise that was home to other significant leaders and intellectuals, including Steven Weinberg and Paul Wolfowitz.
Fukuyama is currently the Bernard L. Schwartz Professor of International Political Economy and Director of the International Development Program at the Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies of Johns Hopkins University, located in Washington, DC.
Fukuyama is best known as the author of The End of History and the Last Man, in which he argued that the progression of human history as a struggle between ideologies is largely at an end, with the world settling on liberal democracy after the end of the Cold War and the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989. Fukuyama predicted the eventual global triumph of political and economic liberalism.
What we may be witnessing is not just the end of the Cold War, or the passing of a particular period of post-war history, but the end of history as such... That is, the end point of mankind's ideological evolution and the universalization of Western liberal democracy as the final form of human government.
He has written a number of other books, among them Trust: The Social Virtues and the Creation of Prosperity and Our Posthuman Future: Consequences of the Biotechnology Revolution. In the latter, he qualified his original 'end of history' thesis, arguing that since biotechnology increasingly allows humans to control their own evolution, it may allow humans to alter human nature, thereby putting liberal democracy at risk. One possible outcome could be that an altered human nature could end in radical inequality. He is a fierce enemy of transhumanism, an intellectual movement asserting that posthumanity is a highly desirable goal.
The current revolution in biological sciences leads him to theorize that in an environment where science and technology are by no means at an end, but rather opening new horizons, history itself cannot therefore be said to be, as he once thought, at an end.
In another work The Great Disruption: Human Nature and the Reconstruction of Social Order, he explores the origins of social norms, and analyses the current disruptions in the fabric of our moral traditions, which he considers as arising from a shift from the manufacturing to the information age. This shift is, he thinks, normal and will prove self-correcting, given the intrinsic human need for social norms and rules.

Dib u dhiska Dawaladnnimadda .
In badan waxaan moodi jiray in siyaasadd tahay waxa lagu gorfooyo fadhi-ku-dirirka oo ay tahay falaqayanta dhacdooyinka maalin la ah, balse argtidaydanni waxay is badashay markii dalka suudaan oo aan waxbarasho u joogay uu ka qaraxay dagaal sokeey e,
oo fursad ii siiyay inaan akhriyo buuga ( how civil wars start and how to stop it by Barbara Walter) kaa oo ii ibo-furay sababaha keena dagaal sokeey e iyo sida loogo hor tago, iyo ( the dictator's hand book by Bruce). Dalka suudaan waxaa aas-aas u ahaa khilaafka siyaasigga ah ee ka dhex qaraxay KALIGIITALIYENNIMO oo keentay dagaal sokeey e.
Markaan dib u raacay waxii aan goob-joog u ahaa iyo araggtiyaha aqoonyahanadda labaddan buug waxay ugu riixeen inaan si dhab ah u eego xaaladaydda shaqsiyadeed ee soomaalinnmo oo ah maxaad bur-buriyay dawaladdaadii? Maxay u soo kaban laadahay? Maxaa kaa dhigay dib -wareeeg ? Maxay dadkaagu u wada yihiin qoxoonnti? Maxay dadka soomaliyeed ee qurbaha aaday ugu baraaruggi laayihiin waydiimaha dadban ee la waydiinnayo ee ah; hormarka iyo Dawaladnnimadda casrigga ah ee ay la kulmeen, daah furnaanta, iyo adeeggyadda aasaasiggah ee loo fidinnayo.
Intaas oo dhammi waxay i soo haggeen buugga la yidhaah ( state-building governance and world order by fukuyama)
Fukuyama waxa uu qabaa in dawaladda dhiska tiir dheexaadkeeddu yahyahay; DASTUURKA oo ah kan isku hayan kara bulshooyinn ku kala duwan, Diin, dhaqan iyo ciriqi. Tusaale waxa ah INDIA.
Haddaba inagga soomaali ahaan Dawaladnnimadda inga bururtay ka dib sidee loo raacay dib u dhiskeedda? In badan waxaynnu hareer marnay qoddobka u muhiinsan oo ah waxa isku hayan kara bulshooyinka oo ah dastuurka, nasiib wanaag waxa aynu nahay hal qoomiyadd oo wadaagta; af, dhaqan, iyo diin. Lkn ayanu ku kala tagnno qabiilnnimmo.
Qabiilnnimmaddi ayaynnu aas-aas uga dhigannay Dawaladnnimaddii oo ayaynnu ku kala gaddisannahay mana shaqayannayso in la unnko dawaldd ka caagan waxa kastoo ku dhisan qaarbo -kiil taasinna hor u socod yeelan mayaso.
Maxaaddirooyin uu ka jeeddin jirray mid ka mid ah jaamacaddaha USA ayaa loo roggay buugggan. Dawaladd dhiska waxa uu u qabaybinnayaa saddex qaybood:
- waxyaabaha ay laa'yihiin dawaladdaha burburray.
- sababta keenta burburka.
-doorrka beesha caalamku leedahay dib u dhiska.
Ugu horrayan waxa uu kala saarayaa farqigga u dhaxeeya QARAN iyo dawaladd. Qarannka waxa uu ku qeexayaa in uu ku qottommo taariikh iyo dhaqan, halka uu dawaladda ku qeexay in ay bayas u tahay haa'ayaddo dawali ah; sida ciidamadda qalabka sidda, iyo dhamaan haa'ayaddaha dawalligga ah .
Dawaladdaha dumay ee bilaa fulinta ah waxa uu tusaale u soo qaadanayaa; xanuunnka AYDHISKA in ayana badanna dawalddaha qaaradda afrika ayana jirrin haa'ayaddo la tacaala xanuunka oo dawooyinnkii bulshaddu u baahnayad aan loo fulin oo dhimasho badan keentay. Sida uu u qeexay (Dawaladda waa haa'ayaddo fulinneed) wasaarradda caafimaaddka oo u xil-saarnnayad ilaallinta iyo ka hortagga xanuunnadda marka ay hawasheedda gabtto, waxa halkaas soo galayaa Dawaladd la'aan.
Dawaladd dhiska waxa uu muhiim u arkaa in ay jirtto dhul badeedd iyo cirr ay ka taliso dawaladdu oo u qayabinnayo labbo; Scope, and capacity. Dawaladdaha dumay waa kuwa aan la hayan labaddan midnna. Oo ah dhul ay ka taliyaan iyo awoodd ay ku ilaaliyaan. Aqoonyahanno kale waxay qabaan in awoodda la saarro dhaqaalaha marka laga hadalayo dib u dhiska dawaladdaha dumay, xage uu fukuyama uu muhiim u arrko in haa'ayaddo dawalligga ah la dhiso ma'daammo tahay unnugga laga unnko dawaladda.
Dib u dhiska dawaladdaha ay beesha caalamku ku leedahay marka uu ka hadalayo waxa uu leeyahay. " beesha caalammku waxay taqaan sida loo caawiyo balse ma taqaan sida loo fulliyo caawimaddaas".
