Technology, R2P, and the UN Framework of Analysis for Atrocity Crimes
How should rapid developments in digital and cyber technology shape our understanding of the Responsibility to Protect (R2P)? And in operationalising the doctrine, how might insights on the impact of technology be integrated within key tools of R2P implementation, such as the United Nations Framework of Analysis for Atrocity Crimes? Although prior literature has produced rich discussion of R2P as a norm, and of the politics surrounding it, analys…
Explaining the Selection Dilemma in Human Rights Ingos
Why do human rights INGOs choose to work on some issues and not others? This article contends that, since the 1990s, the proliferation of issues within the remit of human rights INGOs has increased the moral opportunity costs of selection decisions. Growth in the number and diversity of issues has led to a “selection dilemma” where decision-makers face onerous ethical choices among a significant menu of options. To explain how decision-makers dea…
Psychology and aggregation in International Relations
Theories of decision-making grounded in political psychology have experienced a dramatic rise in the study of International Relations. There is widespread recognition of the benefits of incorporating insights from the behavioural sciences into analyses of political behaviour. However, some scholars have argued that the theoretical and empirical scope of these perspectives remains hampered by an unresolved issue: aggregation. While the fundamental…
Oil wealth and US public support for war
How does the oil wealth of a potential target state affect the likelihood of the US public favoring the use of military force? Recent studies suggest that public opinion on foreign policy is responsive to the core characteristics of target states, such as regime type and majority religion. This article advances this research agenda by examining the effects of intra-regime heterogeneity in respect of an important characteristic of target states: t…
Why Resist? The Sources of Violent and Nonviolent Political Action
Identifying the determinants of political violence among nonstate actors constitutes one of the most pressing problems in contemporary policy and scholarly debates. Why is it that some individuals make the decision to take up arms while others, often with markedly similar background characteristics, choose not to do so? What is the role of commonly cited factors—such as religious belief; psychopathology; and environmental conditions, including ec…
