Impact of Historical Experiences of Defeat on Public Policy Effectiveness
The Boshin War (1868–1869) was Japan’s largest civil war, a typical conventional civil war while being a rare instance where winners and losers were geographically mixed. This study examines how the defeat in the Boshin War impacted the effectiveness of contemporary policy and its mechanisms. We focused on the early period of the COVID-19 pandemic as an event evoking the Boshin War’s collective memory. We measured the frequency of going out using…
Internal displacement and post-conflict gender attitudes
Despite the common understanding that armed civil conflict increases women's vulnerability, scholarly debate suggests that women's status in society improves after violence ends. This study sheds light on post-conflict institutional transformation using popular attitudes toward gender roles and relations. By focusing on the significantly overlooked displacement of nearly 5 million civilians in the former Federally Administered Tribal Areas of Pak…
Ethnoreligious diversity and state-building
Does ethnoreligious diversity lead to higher or lower support for a central state? In this study, we propose that the relationship between diversity and state-making depends on the degree of intergroup contact between different ethnoreligious groups, which varies with locally fractionalized and regionally segregated societies. We hypothesize that high intergroup contact in fractionalized localities contributes to intergroup noncooperation that in…
Wartime service provision and post-conflict state legitimacy
Making sense of violence in semi-technologized conventional civil war
While existing studies highlight features of violence in conventional civil wars, they overlook how war technology is linked to the tactics of armed forces. To shed light on the understudied phenomenon of semi-technologized regular forces in a civil war, this article explores why and how violence is executed by such forces. To do so, we examine patterns of violence in the Boshin War that took place in Japan between 1868 and 1869. Our analyses of …
Remaining behind in the community
It is common during a civil war that a government's counterinsurgency operations result in internally displaced persons seeking refuge from the violence by leaving their communities. However, many civilians alternatively choose to stay in their homes and seek accommodation from the rebels. It is, therefore, puzzling that in a civil war situation when rebel cadres often cannot protect civilians, civilians would remain in their communities. This ar…

Micro-Evidence for Peacebuilding Theories and Policies
Friends in high places
States seek to influence or alter political outcomes in other states by supporting non-governmental groups located within their rivals or enemies. While a dyadic-relation model explains much of state support for non-governmental ethnopolitical organizations, its static view fails to capture the changing nature of their relationships. By bringing violent and non-violent organizations into the same analysis, and examining data across different inte…
The Rebel Economy in Civil War
In civil war, rebel groups play a central role as a regulator in the management of civilian economic activities in their territory of control. While previous studies have intensively researched the impact of economic conditions on the war process and dynamics, little attention has been paid to the variation in economic policies adopted by the rebels. This paper conceptualizes the types of regulation policies imposed by the rebels against civilian…
Politicization Effect of Wartime Service Provision on Public Opinion in Fata, Pakistan
This article explores who among the citizens in the former Federally Administrated Tribal Areas (FATA) of Pakistan is in favor of democratic reforms. Empirical analyses reveal that the government’s wartime service provision politicized citizens and framed their attitude toward the issues of FATA’s jurisdiction and the Frontier Crimes Regulation
Reconsidering the settlement of civil conflict
The settlement of civil conflict is highly relevant to both policy agendas and academic research. It is often difficult to bring to the negotiation table conflict parties who have long harbored hostility towards each other during the conflict. Even if the parties come to negotiation, it is often an arduous task to reach an agreement because the post-conflict embarkation comes with political uncertainty for the future. This special issue is aimed …
Nonviolent Interference in Civic Life During Civil War
While previous studies focus most of their attention on the impact of civil-war violence on postwar norms of interpersonal trustworthiness, they overlook the importance of political actors' nonviolent interference in civic life during such conflicts. This paper investigates the relationship between wartime provision of public services and postwar trustworthiness norms among civilians. Using original survey data collected from Sri Lanka, empirical…
Explaining State Violence in the Guatemalan Civil War
Literature on the Guatemalan Civil War has debated whether or not state violence was triggered by rebel activities. Did the government respond to each insurrection caused by the rebels, or did it blindly target regions where antigovernment antipathy and movements had historically prevailed? Because state violence was extensive during the civil war period, the dynamism of the war could have been the reason for its occurrence. Relying on the threat…
State traditions and language regimes
Language is political. Not only are political activities carried out through verbal exchange, but language is also an issue of political dispute. Most countries throughout the world have official l
Imagined Statehood
Daily Life Satisfaction in Asia
Aside from political leaders' popularity rates and the stock exchange index of business firms, ordinary people are highly interested in aspects of daily life, such as housing, income, health, family, food, human relations and work. Cross-national opinion polls on daily-life satisfaction were carried out in Japan, South Korea, Thailand, Hong Kong, Macao, the Philippines, India, Myanmar, Taiwan, China, Malaysia and Pakistan in the fall of 2013 and …
Armed Groups in Cambodian Civil War
In civil war the causal mechanism on recruitment of combatants is complicated because armed groups interact for context-based strategic. This book argues that a group will adopt varying mobilization s
The Infrastructure of Public Opinion Research in Japan
This article introduces the infrastructure of public opinion research in Japan by reviewing the development of polling organizations and the current situation of social surveys. In Japan, the polling infrastructure developed through the direction and encouragement of the U.S. occupation authorities. In the early 1969s, however, survey researchers began to conduct their own original polls in not only domestic but also cross-national contexts. An e…
Facing a Crisis with Calmness? The Global Response to the Fukushima Nuclear Disaster
Literature expects that an attitude toward nuclear power is in direct proportion to the perceived risk of accidents at an operational nuclear power plant; that is, the oppositional attitude is based on the view that nuclear technology is risky and support for nuclear power is related to a perceived low risk and/or potential benefit. However, it is misleading to assume that individuals’ risk perception alone can linearly explain their position aft…
Territorial Control and Recruitment in the Cambodian Civil War, 1970–75
During the Cambodian Civil War (1970–75), the Khmer Rouge, whose ideological appeal had a significant effect on its recruitment of combatants, flourished and was able to maintain influence over the Cambodian population. The Lon Nol government, to a certain extent, also succeeded in recruiting combatants, and many civilians joined the government army. Focusing on the structural contexts of three districts in Battambang province during the war, thi…
