I read the article. He proposes a new agency as follows:

“To assist these missions, the next U.S. president should restructure and coordinate all the agencies involved in that process. A hybrid military-civilian organization — a Stabilization and Reconstruction Corps staffed by specially trained military and civilian reservists — must be developed. The agency would undertake tasks such as building roads, sewers, and schools; advising on legal reform; and restoring local currencies.”

This is nothing new, it is what we have been doing for the last four years in Afghanistan and Iraq while expending billions of dollars. For a progress report on those expenditures in Iraq go here: http://www.sigir.mil/
