4. 3. Proxy Wars : The Effects of External Support on Multiparty Conflicts

   Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för freds- och konfliktforskning

   Författare :Marcus E Andersson; [2022]
   Nyckelord :multiparty conflict; multiparty; external support; civil war; fragmentation; machine learning; random forest;

   Sammanfattning : How does external support affect the number of rebel groups active in a conflict? The aim of this thesis is to investigate whether there is a systematic relationship between external support and civil wars with more than one rebel group active, referred to as multiparty conflicts. Drawing on previous literature on the causes of such conflicts, I argue that external support increases the probability of multiparty conflicts by providing resources to nascent rebel groups while also causing polarization and inhibiting rebel alliances.

   Sammanfattning : Uninhabited Aircraft Systems (UAS), as a relatively novel technology, was always seen as a tool available and utilized only by rich and developed states. But thanks to globalizations and the fast proliferation of commercially available drones, this platform has already been used by smaller states and also non-state groups, giving them possibilities never seen before.

7. 5. How much is (not) enough? : A Study of the Effect of Power-sharing Provisions on post-treaty Conflict-Related Sexual Violence by Rebel Groups in sub-Sahara Africa

   Författare :Annalena Podzun; [2021]
   Nyckelord :Power-Sharing; Conflict-Related Sexual Violence; Post-Treaty; Non-State Actors; Burundi; Democratic Republic of the Congo;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis studies why some non-state armed groups commit high levels of post-treaty conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV) while others do not. The presented mechanism suggests that limited power-sharing provisions in a peace accord provide few incentives for group leaders to stay committed to the peace process. LÄS MER
