USA Africa Dialogue Series - Study notes on ‘state’ and ‘state failure’ by Edwin Madunagu

"A failed state is a state whose governing capacity is attenuated such that it is unable to fulfill the administrative and organizational tasks required to control people and resources and can provide only minimal public services. Its citizens no longer believe that their government is legitimate, and the state becomes illegitimate in the eyes of the international community."
