Motivated by the history of military alliances during and after the Cold War, we study the sequential expansion of the hegemonial alliances of two great powers. Geography matters for the allocation of the collateral damage of a future military conflict. Current frontline countries bear a major burden. They would prefer to pass this collateral damage on to new members. This motive can drive expansion, which comes to an end only when all remaining non-affiliated countries have been absorbed by one of the two alliances. Those countries are willing to make concessions as part of the accession negotiations, and the overall value of the concessions can reach multiples of the actual collateral damage of military conflict. As a result, alliance expansion may continue beyond what would be optimal from a security perspective.
以冷战期间和冷战后军事联盟的历史为背景,我们研究了两个大国霸权联盟的连续扩张。地理位置对未来军事冲突附带损害的分配很重要。目前的一线国家承担着重大负担。他们更愿意把这种附带损害转嫁给新成员。这种动机可以推动扩张,只有当所有剩余的非联盟国家都被两个联盟中的一个吸收时,扩张才会结束。作为入盟谈判的一部分,这些国家愿意做出让步,而这些让步的总价值可以达到军事冲突实际附带损害的数倍。因此,从安全角度来看,联盟扩张可能会超出最佳范围。

Power, Parity, and Place: Why Forgetting the Loss-of-Strength Gradient Misses the Relative Power Relationship 权力、奇偶性和位置:为什么忘记了力量丧失梯度而忽略了相对权力关系

Students of international relations continue to debate the role of power as a cause of conflict. In particular, there exists no consensus about whether power parity or preponderance is more likely to trigger militarized disputes. Generally overlooked in this and related controversies is the question of where power is actually exercised. It is widely accepted that a state’s power declines with distance. This “loss-of-strength gradient” in turn must imply that the relative power of any combination of countries is not a constant, but rather varies spatially at different locations around the globe. Implementing this simple but as yet undocumented insight to the debate over the effects of relative power, we show that “proximate power”—i.e., power adjusted for the loss-of-strength imposed by distance—reveals a close relationship between parity and conflict onset. The finding conforms with the expectations of modern bargaining approaches to war, which emphasize the role uncertainty plays in precipitating military contests.
国际关系专业的学生继续就权力作为冲突起因的作用进行辩论。特别是,对于实力均势还是优势更有可能引发军事争端,目前还没有达成共识。在这个和相关的争议中,通常被忽视的是权力实际在哪里行使的问题。人们普遍认为,一个国家的实力会随着距离的远近而减弱。这种“实力丧失梯度”反过来必然意味着,任何国家组合的相对实力都不是恒定的,而是在全球不同地点的空间变化。将这一简单但尚未记录在案的见解应用到有关相对权力影响的辩论中,我们表明“近似权力”——即:根据距离造成的力量损失调整后的权力,揭示了平等与冲突爆发之间的密切关系。这一发现符合现代战争谈判方法的预期,即强调不确定性在促成军事竞赛中所起的作用。

I Still Haven’t Found what I’m Looking for: Predicting Security-Related Incidents and Conflict Fatalities with Google Trends and Wikipedia Data 我还没有找到我要找的:用谷歌趋势和维基百科数据预测安全相关事件和冲突死亡

Conflict forecasting has seen two recent developments: a shift to predicting continuous variables and a debate about the value of structural and procedural variables. This paper contributes to these efforts and proposes the category of salience variables in the form of Google Trends and Wikipedia data. Internet searches can be precursors of conflict intensity as a result of for example an increase in protests, violent behavior, or public announcements. Data are readily and openly available, updated in real time, and provide global coverage which makes it ideal for near-real time forecasting. Prediction targets are the number of security-related incidents and battle-related, non-state, and civilian casualties. I demonstrate the value of salience variables using various out-of-sample windows and performance metrics on the country- and province-month level. I find evidence that salience variables have considerable predictive power, outperform other commonly used variables, and are thus a valuable addition to the conflict forecasting toolkit.
冲突预测最近有两个发展趋势:一是转向预测连续变量,二是关于结构变量和程序变量价值的辩论。本文为这些努力做出了贡献,并提出了谷歌趋势和维基百科数据形式的显著变量类别。互联网搜索可能是冲突强度的先兆,例如抗议、暴力行为或公告的增加。数据随时可公开获取,实时更新,并提供全球覆盖,使其成为近实时预测的理想选择。预测目标是与安全有关的事件和与战斗有关的、非国家和平民伤亡的数量。我使用不同的样本外窗口和国家/省/月级别的性能指标来演示显著性变量的值。我发现有证据表明,显著变量具有相当大的预测能力,优于其他常用变量,因此是冲突预测工具包的一个有价值的补充。

Moral Hazard or State Capacity? U.S. Military Assistance and Political Violence in Pakistan 道德风险还是国家能力?美国在巴基斯坦的军事援助和政治暴力

Does U.S. military assistance affect domestic patterns of political violence? Military aid can improve the recipient country’s military capacity, but also create an incentive for prolonging conflict to secure future assistance. This moral hazard can manifest by geographically displacing conflict away from military strongholds while demonstrating an aggregate country-wide decrease in levels of violence. I analyze U.S. military assistance to Pakistan and find that aid can decrease the aggregate level of political violence in the short run. However, this short-run decrease is accompanied by a displacement of violence away from military headquarters. The discontinuity created by the sudden withdrawal of U.S. military assistance after Pakistan’s nuclear program, followed by its resumption post-9/11, lends causal purchase to my results, as does the historical location of military headquarters that were established by colonizers and have persisted in post-independence Pakistan.
美国的军事援助会影响国内的政治暴力模式吗?军事援助可以提高受援国的军事能力,但也会造成延长冲突以确保未来援助的动机。这种道德风险可以表现为在地理上使冲突远离军事据点,同时显示出全国范围内暴力水平的总体下降。我分析了美国对巴基斯坦的军事援助,发现援助可以在短期内降低政治暴力的总体水平。然而,伴随这种短期减少而来的是暴力从军事总部转移出去。在巴基斯坦的核计划之后,美国突然撤出军事援助,随后又在9/11事件后恢复援助,造成了这种中断,这对我的结论有因果关系,就像殖民者建立的军事总部的历史位置一样,这些军事总部在独立后的巴基斯坦一直存在。

The main purpose of this retrospective of the economic theory of alliances is to characterize three basic paradigms: purely public deterrence, spatial connectivity, and joint products. For each model, allies’ military expenditure (ME) responds differently to the aggregate ME of the other allies, known as defense spillins, thereby resulting in diverse burden sharing, allocative implications, membership composition, and institutional recommendations. The underlying theoretical models determine reduced-form equations for allies’ interdependent defense demands. We examine how changes in strategic doctrines, weapons technology, enemy threats, and membership composition affected NATO burden sharing and its allocative efficiency over time. Generally, changes that increase the share of excludable defense benefits possess a better prognosis for burden sharing and allocative efficiency. Principles and insights from the economic theory of alliances are related to defense demands at the operational level and for non-NATO alliances.
回顾联盟经济理论的主要目的是描述三种基本范式:纯公共威慑、空间连通性和联合产品。对于每个模型,盟国的军费支出(ME)对其他盟国的总军费支出的反应不同,称为国防溢出,从而导致不同的负担分担、分配影响、成员组成和制度建议。潜在的理论模型确定了盟国相互依赖的防御需求的简化方程。我们研究了战略理论、武器技术、敌人威胁和成员构成的变化如何随着时间的推移影响北约的负担分担及其分配效率。一般而言,增加排他性防卫利益份额的变化对负担分担和分配效率具有更好的预测。联盟经济理论的原则和见解与作战层面和非北约联盟的防御需求有关。

Institutionalized but Under Implemented: Factors Affecting Women’s Inclusion in Peace Negotiations Between 1975 and 2020 制度化但执行不力:1975年至2020年期间影响妇女参与和平谈判的因素

The Women, Peace, and Security (WPS) agenda has achieved global prominence. Yet, women’s participation in peace negotiations remains rare, and little is known about which factors facilitate their inclusion. Quantitative scholarship has been hampered by incomplete data, drawing almost exclusively from prominent negotiations where agreements were reached. To address this shortcoming, we introduce a novel dataset comprising 267 dyadic negotiations between 1975 and 2020. We find two distinct pathways to women’s representation. First, representation in government and rebel negotiating delegations is linked to higher rates of women’s participation in rebel group leadership, higher levels of feminist mobilization, and the presence of a WPS National Action Plan. Second, representation in civil society delegations correlates to international mediation and higher levels of women’s representation in parliament. These findings suggest that the norm of women’s inclusion continues to face barriers that can be overcome by a particular combination of actors and domestic commitments.
妇女、和平与安全议程已成为全球瞩目的议题。然而,妇女参与和平谈判的情况仍然很少,而且很少知道是哪些因素促进了她们的参与。定量研究受到数据不完整的阻碍,数据几乎完全来自达成协议的重要谈判。为了解决这一缺点,我们引入了一个新的数据集,其中包括1975年至2020年之间的267个二元谈判。我们发现有两条截然不同的途径来增加女性的代表性。首先,在政府和叛军谈判代表团中有代表权与更高比例的妇女参与叛军领导、更高水平的女权主义动员以及WPS国家行动计划的存在有关。第二,民间社会代表团的代表性与国际调解和更高水平的妇女在议会中的代表性有关。这些调查结果表明,妇女参与的规范仍然面临障碍,这些障碍可以通过行为者和家庭承诺的特定组合来克服。

The Long Shadow of COVID-19 Lockdowns on Nonstate Actor Violence COVID-19封锁对非国家行为者暴力的长期影响

Early studies of the effects of COVID-19 lockdowns on nonstate actor violence presented competing hypotheses and yielded mixed results. Economic arguments primarily claimed that lockdowns would increase violence and implied that their effects would last after lockdowns were lifted. Conversely, logistical arguments claimed that lockdowns would decrease violence and that their effects would endure only as long as lockdowns were in place. Using new, more precise, and comprehensive data and measures, this study directly compares these competing arguments globally. The study finds that both economic and logistical factors affected violence and that violence was lower overall in the short and long term. Logistical factors potentially outweighed economic ones due to the inability of nonstate actors to capitalize fully on the negative economic effects of lockdowns when population movements were disrupted. The study also disaggregates the economic effects of lockdowns, finding the strongest support for state capacity-based arguments.
关于COVID-19封锁对非国家行为者暴力影响的早期研究提出了相互矛盾的假设,并得出了不同的结果。经济论点主要声称封锁会增加暴力,并暗示其影响将在封锁解除后持续存在。相反,从逻辑上讲,封锁会减少暴力,而且只要封锁到位,暴力的影响就会持续下去。这项研究使用了新的、更精确的、更全面的数据和措施,直接比较了全球范围内这些相互竞争的论点。研究发现,经济和后勤因素都影响暴力,从短期和长期来看,暴力总体上较低。后勤因素可能超过经济因素,因为当人口流动中断时,非国家行为体无法充分利用封锁带来的负面经济影响。该研究还对封锁的经济影响进行了分类,发现以国家能力为基础的论点得到了最有力的支持。

When Fairness is Unfair: Norm Abandonment in Bargaining and Its Implications for Peace Negotiations 当公平是不公平的:讨价还价中的规范放弃及其对和平谈判的启示

Fairness perceptions can significantly impact the instigation and resolution of conflicts. To examine how fairness norms shape agreements, we conduct an experiment, where participants first select a preferred rule between equal division, equal gain, and proportional division. When paired with another sharing the same norm, participants decide whether to adhere to the projected division or negotiate a different outcome. Experimental results reveal that participants renege on the agreement more frequently when allocations are perceived as unfair to the self: high contributors in equal division and low contributors in proportional division. Furthermore, attachment to the initial norm is sturdiest for strict equality and weakest for proportionality. Equal gain, coinciding with the Nash bargaining solution, is the most favored at both preselection and negotiation outcomes. We discuss several applications of our findings in resolving international conflicts.
公平观念可以显著影响冲突的煽动和解决。为了检验公平规范如何影响协议,我们进行了一个实验,参与者首先在平等分配、平等收益和比例分配之间选择一个首选规则。当与另一个拥有相同标准的人配对时,参与者决定是坚持预期的划分还是协商不同的结果。实验结果表明,当分配被认为对自己不公平时,参与者更频繁地违背协议:等额分配中的高贡献者和比例分配中的低贡献者。此外,对初始规范的依恋对于严格的平等是最牢固的,对于比例性是最弱的。在预选和谈判结果中,平等收益与纳什议价方案一致,是最受青睐的。我们讨论了我们的研究结果在解决国际冲突中的几个应用。

Living in Fear? Political Violence and Authoritarian Attitudes Among Politicians in South Africa 生活在恐惧中?南非政治家中的政治暴力和专制态度

Do elected representatives become more authoritarian when violence against politicians is made salient? Many states are beset by politician-directed violence, but we know little about the consequences of such violence for democratic politics. In this paper we use a pre-registered survey experiment to investigate whether raising the salience of violence against politicians influences authoritarian attitudes among local councillors in South Africa. We find that councillors prompted to think about politician-directed violence are significantly more likely to adopt authoritarian attitudes. We also find strong heterogeneous treatment effects by political party, with the strongest effects among opposition party members. Unlike members of the nationally dominant African National Congress (ANC), opposition councillors appear to interpret politician-directed violence as a signal of systemic corruption, leading them to prioritize re-establishing order. Our findings have important implications for understanding the effects of violence on political elites and the determinants of authoritarianism.
当针对政客的暴力变得突出时,民选代表会变得更加专制吗?许多国家都被政客主导的暴力所困扰,但我们对这种暴力对民主政治的影响知之甚少。在本文中,我们使用预先登记的调查实验来调查是否提高对政治家的暴力的显著性影响了南非地方议员的专制态度。我们发现,被提示考虑政治导向暴力的议员更有可能采取专制态度。我们还发现政党的异质性治疗效应较强,其中对反对党成员的影响最大。与在全国占主导地位的非洲人国民大会(ANC)成员不同,反对派议员似乎将政客主导的暴力视为系统性腐败的信号,导致他们优先考虑重建秩序。我们的发现对于理解暴力对政治精英的影响和威权主义的决定因素具有重要意义。

Many states are beset by politician-directed violence, but we know little about the consequences of such violence for democratic politics. In this paper we use a pre-registered survey experiment to investigate whether raising the salience of violence against politicians influences authoritarian attitudes among local councillors in South Africa. We find that councillors prompted to think about politician-directed violence are significantly more likely to adopt authoritarian attitudes. We also find strong heterogeneous treatment effects by political party, with the strongest effects among opposition party members. Unlike members of the nationally dominant African National Congress (ANC), opposition councillors appear to interpret politician-directed violence as a signal of systemic corruption, leading them to prioritize re-establishing order. Our findings have important implications for understanding the effects of violence on political elites and the determinants of authoritarianism.","PeriodicalId":51363,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Conflict Resolution","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144513243","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article develops a new theory of how a strong target regime can (partially) deter a sender from imposing sanctions over major issues. We develop a formal theoretic framework to show that, following a sender’s sanction threat, a strong target regime can signal its strength by deliberately weakening itself through always sharing power with a domestic opposition, while a weak target regime mixes between sharing and not sharing power with the opposition. The strategy offers the sender a better assessment of a target’s strength, enabling it to adjust its sanction policy accordingly and avoid the costs of a potentially ineffective sanction over a strong target regime. As a result, a strong target regime will be sanctioned with a lower probability than a weak one.
本文提出了一个新的理论,即一个强大的目标制度如何(部分地)阻止发送国在重大问题上实施制裁。我们发展了一个正式的理论框架来表明,在发送者的制裁威胁之后,一个强大的目标政权可以通过总是与国内反对派分享权力来故意削弱自己,而一个弱小的目标政权则在与反对派分享权力和不分享权力之间混合。该战略使派遣国能够更好地评估目标国的实力,使其能够相应地调整其制裁政策,并避免在强有力的目标国制度上实施可能无效的制裁所带来的成本。因此,一个强大的目标国家受到制裁的可能性要低于一个弱小的目标国家。
