这篇文章提供了一些第一个个人层面的证据,领土问题的国内突出。使用来自43个不同国家的80,000多名个体受访者的调查数据,我们研究了冲突如何影响个人自我认同的内容。我们发现,国际冲突对个人自我认同的可能性和内容产生了强烈的影响,但这种影响因冲突类型而异。领土冲突证明了领土显著性的民族主义理论,导致目标国家的大多数人将自己视为本国公民。然而,在引发领土争端的国家中,个人更有可能自我认同为特定种族的成员,这为将国内突出性与种族政治联系起来的理论提供了支持。这种冲突对身份形成的影响多种多样,表明这种关系不是内生的。我们在尼日利亚自我认同的变化的案例内分析进一步表明,个人很容易受到国际冲突的类型和地点。
This article provides some of the first individual-level evidence for the domestic salience of territorial issues. Using survey data from more than 80,000 individual respondents in 43 separate countries, we examine how conflict affects the content of individual self-identification. We find that international conflict exerts a strong influence on the likelihood and content of individual self-identification, but this effect varies with the type of conflict. Confirming nationalist theories of territorial salience, territorial conflict leads the majority of individuals in targeted countries to identify themselves as citizens of their country. However, individuals in countries that are initiating territorial disputes are more likely to self-identify as members of a particular ethnicity, which provides support for theories connecting domestic salience to ethnic politics. That conflict has variegated effects on identity formation suggests the relationship is not endogenous. Our within-case analysis of changes in Nigerian self-identifications further demonstrates that individuals are quite susceptible to the types and locations of international conflict.
