500 _aSummary: USIP's John Dempsey and Noah Coburn argue that stability in Afghanistan requires not simply an increased troop presence to counter anti-government insurgents but also a fair means of resolving simmering local disputes. Too often, arguments over land and water rights and other criminal and civil issues spiral into sources of violence that increase instability in the country. USIP has worked with Afghan partner organizations to pilot projects in four districts across Afghanistan to explore the relationship between state and informal justice processes. Based on this work, Dempsey and Coburn suggest that traditional dispute resolution mechanisms can provide a valuable way to prevent local disputes from escalating into violence, while the building of still-nascent state justice institution continues. Dempsey and Coburn argue that Afghan state institutions and the country's multi-faceted community-led dispute resolution councils can and should work together, harnessing each other's strengths while addressing the deficiencies of each, and improving access to justice for all.
