“In Palestine, law is a confusing mixture of Ottoman, British, Egyptian, Jordanian, and Israeli legal influences.”
Robert I. Rotberg, When States Fail: Causes and Consequences

“Law, lastly, stands between politics and morality.”
Robert I. Rotberg, When States Fail: Causes and Consequences

“The extreme situation in Somalia favored the imposition of international conservatorship. At this point, what I have termed strategies of construction and maintenance overlap. Conservatorship may involve international territorial administration. International territorial administration, in turn, may simultaneously involve the construction of new, and the maintenance and reequilibration of surviving, institutions of state.”
Robert I. Rotberg, When States Fail: Causes and Consequences
