DESCRIPTION:In post-conflict contexts\, rent-generating institutions are o
 ften captured by political factions for rent-seeking purposes. Yet some in
 stitutions stay relatively effective. Why? Using a comparative analysis of
  Afghanistan’s Ministries of Interior Affairs and of Finance\, it examin
 es why two ministries with comparable rent-generation potential\, levels o
 f international engagement\, and exposure to factional distribution produc
 ed divergent outcomes. While the Min. of Interior was marked by factional 
 capture\, the Min. of Finance retained relative credibility and effectiven
 ess. Drawing on institutionalist theory\, a qualitative Most Similar Syste
 ms Design\, and social network analysis\, the study explores: (1) the cond
 itions under which political factions refrain from state capture\; (2) how
  capture persists despite reform pressures\; and (3) how patronage can be 
 systematically measured in fragile settings\, thus contributing to debates
  on institution building and reform in post-conflict societies.
