2. DISASTER RISK REDUCTION AND RESPONSE IN CONFLICT-AFFECTED CONTEXTS : How armed conflict affects disaster risk reduction (DRR) and disaster response, and what explains within conflict variations?
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för freds- och konfliktforskningSammanfattning : This thesis w attempts to contribute to the identified gap in the disaster-conflict literature and posits the following research question: How does armed conflict affect DRR and disaster response, and what explains within conflict variations? Past research revealed that there is significant variation in types of rebel groups, which has significant consequences for disaster management. More nuanced approaches are needed in studying wartime political orders to scrutinize the dynamics of armed conflict and to assess the feasibility of DRR and relief interventions in different contexts.

3. Is it sometimes safer to be alone? : A qualitative analysis of civilian agency and its effects on rebel tactics.
Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för freds- och konfliktforskningSammanfattning : Despite an increasing interest in civil agency and its role in armed conflict, little is known about the effect it might have on rebel groups' patterns of behaviour. In this study I explore the theory of collective action capacity, which is the population's ability to cooperate and forego short term incentives to preserve long term cooperation, and its effect on rebel groups' method of generating compliance in new territory.

Kandidat-uppsats, Södertörns högskola/HistoriaSammanfattning : During the late 1960s pandemonium and chaos spread throughout the northeast part of the Irish island in the area known as Northern Ireland, a part of the United Kingdom.

5. The Relevance of Legacies : How Parent Organizations Influence the Survival Chances of Rebel Groups
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för freds- och konfliktforskningSammanfattning : How does the organizational legacy of a rebel group affect its ability to survive within a conflict? I theorize that adopting the institutional structure from a parent organization can strengthen the rebel group’s ability to resist the government. By drawing upon literature that identifies how such a pre-established structure is complementary to, or serves as a substitute for an informal system of social control, I posit that rebel groups emerging from a pre-existing organization are less likely to get militarily defeated by the government than rebel groups without a parent organization.
