Agents of Peace or Enablers of Violence? The Proximal Effects of Mediators in International Disputes Sep 14, 2021 Terris, Lesley; Tykocinski, Orit Eva, 2021, "Agents of Peace or Enablers of Violence? The Proximal Effects of Mediators in International Disputes", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/ZYFNXL, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:LZOtHcHbEe/a4/iR1ty1LQ== [fileUNF] The international relations literature typically portrays mediators as effective agents of dispute de-escalation. Upon mediation onset rivals are expected to lower the flames of conflict and enter into negotiations. We argue, however, that the mediator’s presence may actually prompt and facilitate conflict escalation, particularly immediately follo...
Shaming into Compliance? Country Reporting of Convention Adherence to the International Labour Organization Sep 14, 2021 Koliev, Faradj; Lebovic, James, 2021, "Shaming into Compliance? Country Reporting of Convention Adherence to the International Labour Organization", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/WRJX7N, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:rvSeVb/KjL/Gg29GOXPWwA== [fileUNF] When does social pressure in the form of “naming and shaming” induce states to concede their prerogatives by providing potentially compromising information to international organizations (IOs)? We provide answers to that question in what we believe is the first systematic study of the impact of social pressure on state reporting practices, as an ac...
Banditry or Business? Rebel Labor Markets and State Economic Intervention Aug 24, 2021 Estancona, Chelsea, 2021, "Banditry or Business? Rebel Labor Markets and State Economic Intervention", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/CSN41Q, Harvard Dataverse, V1 Stationary banditry is ubiquitous in civil war, with some rebel groups even investing in and profiting from primary commodities for years or decades. But for many of these groups, labor is a necessary component of resource production, such that laborers' economic participation is vital for rebel funding and survival. States, meanwhile, are eager to...
Designing Alliances: How Adversaries Provoke Peacetime Military Coordination Aug 20, 2021 Johnson, Jesse, 2021, "Designing Alliances: How Adversaries Provoke Peacetime Military Coordination", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/ZDUDPP, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:lsgQgH4Z6rGjrI4YPBh73Q== [fileUNF] States form military alliances for the security benefits they provide. Despite this common purpose of military alliances, alliances vary a great deal in their design. Notably, some states form alliances that involve extensive peacetime military coordination while others form alliances with minimal peacetime military coordination. I argue that this...
Hard Choices, Soft Targets: Terror Proscription and Strategic Targeting Decisions of Foreign Terrorist Organizations Jul 30, 2021 Best, Rebecca; Lahiri, Simanti, 2021, "Hard Choices, Soft Targets: Terror Proscription and Strategic Targeting Decisions of Foreign Terrorist Organizations", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/DQY5TQ, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:ciETeZAEKxVKr2j55ArS/w== [fileUNF] Proscription lists are common counter-terror tools, yet their impact on terrorist violence is unclear. We find that proscription can be effective at constraining the violence of some types of groups, especially those that are young, secular, and without institutional support. However, proscription also can backfire from a counter-terrorist prospect...
Mutual Gain or Resource Drain? Attitudes toward International Financial Assistance During the Early COVID-19 Pandemic Jul 30, 2021 Dolan, Lindsay; Nguyen, Quynh, 2021, "Mutual Gain or Resource Drain? Attitudes toward International Financial Assistance During the Early COVID-19 Pandemic", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/W8KLE9, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:WPOgY+kNf6Z39GKkTf2APA== [fileUNF] Despite the need for international cooperation on COVID-19, the United States displayed reluctance to contribute to a global response. To shed light on the domestic politics that may underlie this foreign policy, we investigate how the U.S. public viewed financial assistance to international organizations (IO)s and developing countries during the e...
Peaceful Dyads: A Territorial Perspective Jul 30, 2021 Owsiak, Andrew; Vasquez, John, 2021, "Peaceful Dyads: A Territorial Perspective", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/ZGLTWG, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:Rg/mnJrJG9Ig4uLC0c7itw== [fileUNF] Many dyads develop peaceful relationships, avoiding war for long, historical periods. Are such dyads common? How many exist, and why have they never fought? This study provides a territorial perspective on peaceful dyads, defined as those that never fight a war over a given historical period. It compares two explanations for why peaceful dyads exis...
Qui Bono? Foreign Military, Economic, Diplomatic Interventions, and the Termination of Civil Wars: An Integrative Approach Jul 30, 2021 Ilgaz, Huseyin, 2021, "Qui Bono? Foreign Military, Economic, Diplomatic Interventions, and the Termination of Civil Wars: An Integrative Approach", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/Y0MUSM, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:TyByJeL5MLVWR+JJGpDfXg== [fileUNF] Foreign interventions are generally considered as game changers in civil wars. Yet the extant literature on this topic typically focuses on a single type of intervention, neglecting the effect of other intervention types deployed within the same conflict. Breaking with tradition, this article proposes a more extensive, multi-faceted bargaining mode...
A Price for Peace: Troop Contributing Countries' Responses to Peacekeeper Fatalities Jul 30, 2021 Oestman, Jared, 2021, "A Price for Peace: Troop Contributing Countries' Responses to Peacekeeper Fatalities", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/7DEBAO, Harvard Dataverse, V1 How do states respond to fatalities of their troops in UN peacekeeping operations (PKOs)? Recent research highlights that participation in peacekeeping is costly for most states. Personnel fatalities should create further costs for contributors and often result in a reduction of their commitments. Studies that evaluate this expectation yield mixed...
The Issues are the Issues: Intangible Salience and War Duration Jun 29, 2021 Atkinson, Douglas Bryan, 2021, "The Issues are the Issues: Intangible Salience and War Duration", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/ZOC3DQ, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:ID0AB+TMryydylrZ8QAUpA== [fileUNF] While it has long been acknowledged that issues play an important role in conflict processes, research on war duration has paid insufficient attention to them. In this paper, I help to remedy this deficiency by devising an original theory concerning the role of issues in war. I do this by focusing on the tangibility of the issues under dispute. I c...
