Meera Sabaratnam is Senior Lecturer in International Relations at SOAS, University of London.

Dr. Sabaratnam has written an original and compelling book on the dialectics of international development practices in Mozambique. Based on sophisticated ethnographic research, combined with a superb grasp of the postcolonial and international relations literature, Decolonising Intervention will quickly establish itself as the benchmark for originality in de-colonial scholarship. Rarely does one find a book on critical international relations, and especially on state-building in Africa, written with such unrelenting clarity.
