  • Democratic victory and war duration: Why are democracies less likely to win long wars

    Open Access•K Nakao•ARTICLE•Conflict Management and Peace…•2025•References: 38

    The probability of democracies winning wars appears negatively associated with the duration of wars. This relationship might be explained by two contrasting mechanisms besides the selection effect. According to one mechanism, democracies require a long time to reach a surrender decision, because they face audience costs if they break a prewar commitment hastily. The other mechanism suggests that democracies are less likely to win prolonged wars, …

  • Simultaneous Battles and Sequential Battles in Bargaining Models of War

    Open Access•K Nakao•ARTICLE•Peace Economics Peace Science and…•2024•References: 19

    A war consists of multiple battles, yet the theoretical literature of International Relations has given little attention to how battles relate within a war. By integrating two ultimatum games with private information played by an Aggressor and a Defender, we develop bargaining models of war with two structures: (i) parallel war, where battles occur simultaneously in two domains, as the Aggressor can access both directly; and (ii) series war, wher…

  • Denial and punishment in war

    Open Access•K Nakao•ARTICLE•Journal of Peace Research•2021•Cited by: 2•References: 31

    Formal models of war termination have been developed along two major approaches: in one, war is interpreted as a series of battles, where nations exchange denials that aim to destroy enemy forces; in the other, war is illustrated as a process of bargaining with mutual punishments that inflict costs on opponents. By integrating these two approaches, I build a dynamic model of war, where two nations choose between military force and civilian value …

  • Rationalist Explanations for Two-Front War

    K Nakao•ARTICLE•Peace Economics Peace Science and…•2020

    By extending the extant costly-lottery models of dyadic war to three-party bargaining scenarios, we offer rationalist explanations for two-front war, where a state at the center is fought by two enemies at opposing peripheries. We found that even though private information exists only in one front, war can break out in both fronts. Because the war outcome in one front can affect the outcome in the other through the shift of military balance, a pe…

  • Expansion of rebellion: From periphery to heartland

    Open Access•K Nakao•ARTICLE•Journal of Peace Research•2015•Cited by: 1•References: 31

    Why do some rebellions expand gradually as rebel groups challenge in sequence, whereas other rebellions explode instantaneously as rebel groups challenge in unison? To address this question, we develop a dynamic and spatial model of rebellion that illustrates patterns of war fought between a hegemon (government) and its challengers (rebel groups). Our model incorporates three features into the standard coordination game: (a) potential rebel group…

  • Shared Abodes, Disparate Visions: Japanese Anthropology during the Allied Occupation

    K Nakao•ARTICLE•Social Science Japan Journal•2007•Cited by: 1•References: 4

    During World War II, the US enlisted behavioral scientists to provide intelligence on combatant nations. In 1945–1951, when Japan was put under Allied occupation in the wake of military defeat, American anthropologists were dispatched to work for the Civil Information and Education Section under General Headquarters in Tokyo, under whose orders they carried out a number of social science surveys throughout rural Japan. The first of these anthropo…

  • Referral patterns to and from inpatient psychiatric services: A social network approach

    K Nakao, Laura J Milazzo-Sayre et al.•ARTICLE•American Journal of Public Health•1986•Cited by: 2•References: 1

    Interorganizational linkages have assumed more import for mental health service systems during the past three decades because of increased levels of complexity in service delivery patterns. This analysis examines these linkages from a relational perspective, with network of patient referral patterns as the basic unit. Multidimensional scaling is employed to discern patterns of interorganizational linkages in national patient referral data collect…
