What are the theoretical and policy foundations for SJSR?
SJSR is a recognised discipline which has been widely debated in academia and government. It is accepted as a legitimate use of development funds by the OECD Development Assistance Committee. Key policy documents include the OECD-DAC Handbook on Security System Reform and the UK Department For International Development’s 2009 White Paper on Development. Summaries of the many academic studies of the field can be found at the University of Birmingham’s Global Facilitation Network for Security Sector Reform and the Centre for the Democratic Control of Armed Forces.
