Strategies of economic reintegration implemented in DDR processes during 21st century: a systematic literature review
Keywords:
Economic reintegration, DDR processes, ex-combatants, armed groups, armed conflictAbstract
In this paper a systematic literature review is carried out with the purpose of studying the economic reintegration strategies implemented in some countries during the 21st Century. The countries selected for review in the methodological framework were Burundi, Angola, Sudan, Indonesia, Ivory Coast, Central African Republic, Republic of Congo, Chad and Colombia. From the review of each of the strategies, it was concluded that the lack of planning is the main reason why some DDR processes do not have the expected success, on the other hand, it was found that the support of international entities such as the United Nations, World Bank and International Labor Organization can make a great contribution to the economic reintegration of ex-combatants.
