摘要

本研究探讨了 2005 年至 2016 年期间,强迫移民如何影响 23 个撒哈拉以南非洲国家的种族多样性和冲突。利用联合国难民署关于难民营地点的数据,我们预测了当地种族多样性的变化。通过整合非洲晴雨表和种族权力关系--难民种族数据集,我们分析了难民引发的多样性与冲突发生之间的联系。研究结果表明,难民引发的两极分化会增加当地发生暴力的风险,而分裂化则有缓解作用。值得注意的是,难民数量并不影响冲突发生的可能性;相反,种族多样性的改变,特别是两极分化,成为冲突的主要驱动因素。

Ethnic diversity and conflict in sub-Saharan Africa: Evidence from refugee-hosting areas
This study explores how forced migration affects ethnic diversity and conflict in 23 Sub-Saharan African countries from 2005 to 2016. Using UNHCR data on refugee camp locations, we predict changes in local ethnic diversity. By integrating Afrobarometer and Ethnic Power Relations-Ethnicity of Refugees datasets, we analyse the link between refugee-induced diversity and conflict occurrence. Findings indicate that refugee-induced polarization increases the risk of local violence, while fractionalization has a mitigating effect. Notably, the number of refugees does not impact the likelihood of conflict; instead, alterations in ethnic diversity, especially polarization, emerge as the primary driver of conflict.
