Abstract
To date, some examples of social protection are becoming the standard approach to reducing poverty levels. However, despite its long history of success in some developing worlds, social protection programs are non-existent or weakening in Fragile States. This book discusses conditions which can make social protection work in Fragile States; such as effectiveness, foreign aid, state capacity, political will, transfer delivery methods and also issues of partnerships, coordination of aid and corruption
