Abstract: |
Under what conditions do insurgents challenge gender norms in the midst of conflict? What do they gain by doing so? Using an original dataset of 137 armed groups fighting between 1950 and 2019, I argue that armed groups challenge gender customs to reshape local power relations. With 40% of rebel groups regulating civilian gender customs during civil war, this strategy is remarkably widespread, comparable to the provision of taxation or basic security in its prevalence (Albert 2022). I demonstrate that armed groups exploit pre-existing gender grievances, using strategies like punishing domestic violence (9% of groups), banning dowries (15%) and enforcing dress codes (11%) in order to empower targeted sub-sections of the population and undermine local elites. I combine cross-national analysis with qualitative case studies examining Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb and Katiba Macina, two Islamist groups in Mali. This allows me to demonstrate how approach to local elites drives gender governance in two groups with a shared ideology, goals and societal context. |
