本文认为，在冲突融资中强调自然资源是无益的。冲突经济不应侧重于单独的冲突融资方法，而应将其视为融资战略的组合。这为分析有组织武装团体的脆弱性开辟了新的空间。文章表明，有组织的武装团体是理性的，有多种资金来源，并根据其需求从一个转移到另一个。它们在一个有利于为冲突筹资的结构性环境中运作。这对多边政策在制止冲突筹资方面的有效性以及冲突后建设和平的可行性提出了挑战。如果收入来源的可得性能够影响武装冲突的动态，那么反对为冲突筹资的政策就具有建设和平的巨大潜力。关键词：冲突政治经济学，冲突融资，自然资源，有组织武装团体，建设和平。
This article argues that an emphasis on natural resources in conflict financ ing is unhelpful. Instead of focusing on individual methods of conflict fi nancing, conflict economies should be approached as a combination of finan cing strategies. This opens new space for analyzing the vulnerability of organized armed groups. The article shows that organized armed groups are rational, have multiple sources of financing, and shift from one to another as a function of their needs. They operate in a structural environment that facilitates conflict financing. This challenges the effectiveness of multilat eral policy against conflict financing and the viability of postconflict peace building. If the availability of revenue sources can affect the dynamics of armed conflict, policy against conflict financing holds a promising potential for peacebuilding. Keywords: political economy of conflict, conflict financ ing, natural resources, organized armed groups, peacebuilding.
