Dovish Hawks: How Leaders’ Combat Experience Influences the End of Civil Conflicts in Peace Agreements
Who are the leaders who end civil wars through peace agreements? I theorize that the prior combat experience of a state leader is an important life experience with direct relevance for how leaders evaluate conflict outcomes. Combat experience increases sensitivity to human losses and gives the state leader a hawkish reputation, increasing internal support, boosting their risk-tolerance, and convincing the rebel leader to take the leader seriously…
No-campaigns in peace referendums
Peace agreements can be more effective and durable when being supported by the broad public through a peace referendum. However, after some peace negotiations, No-campaigns succeeded in convincing voters that the peace in question was not the right solution. This study seeks to advance the discussion of campaign support in peace referendums by studying the design and content of No-campaigns, in relation to their Yes-counterparts, and their role i…
Gender in elections: The consequences of killing women activists
Violence against social activists is a global phenomenon, increasingly prevalent in democratic and conflict-affected states. Violence targeting women activists, in particular, highlights the intersection of gender-based discrimination and the risks associated with activism. We theorize that the killings of women activists reduce both women's motivation to run for office and voters' willingness to elect women candidates, driven by fears of further…
Trained to rebel: Rebel leaders' military training and the dynamics of civil conflicts
Rebel leaders can prolong civil wars. Although past research has examined how rebel groups have shaped civil wars, little attention has been paid to rebel leaders. I argue that civil wars last longer and are less likely to be terminated in government-favorable outcomes when rebel leaders with training in a nonstate armed group are in charge, in contrast to leaders with no training or state military service. Nonstate training makes leaders more ca…
The Politics of Risking Peace Revisited: The Fate of Rebel Leaders Who Signed Peace Agreements
Are rebel leaders punished for signing peace agreements? Many studies have found that leaders face domestic punishment for signing peace agreements. However, while this may be true for state leaders, it remains unclear whether this is also the case for rebel leaders. Between 1975 and 2018, I describe what happened to the rebel leaders who signed a peace agreement. One-third of rebel leaders in these countries experienced exile, imprisonment, or u…
Years of Solitude Revisited: A Critical Analysis of 25 Years of Scholarship on Colombia’s Civil Conflict
Over the last 25 years, Colombia has emerged as a highly influential case study in the civil wars literature. This article takes stock of the English-speaking literature on civil conflict in Colombia, discussing the quantity, impact, and challenges of scholarship on Colombia vis-à-vis the wider civil wars field. It shows that work on Colombia has particularly influenced debates on rebel governance and socialisation, civilian victimisation, and lo…
Dear German Academia: What is Your Role in African Knowledge Production
Although African critical scholars since the 19th century have challenged the culture of studying and writing about Africa, research practices on Africa are still entangled in epistemic injustices resulting from colonial structures of power. In this reflective contribution, we illustrate how such knowledge production perpetuates coloniality and outline the ways in which academic coloniality affects the quality of research and is detrimental to bo…
Political leadership for peace processes: Juan Manuel Santos – Between hawk and dove
Many studies have explored Colombia’s peace process with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia – guerrilla group (2012–2016). Conflict negotiation literature indicates that the impact of leadership is particularly relevant to peace processes as leaders have to find a balance between war and peace. Still, little is known about the political leaders in charge. This study deals with the development of a political leader’s leadership in peace in…
