自1989年以来,中欧和东欧国家经历了重大的体制改革。作为这一进程的一部分,国家和少数民族之间的领土争夺产生了三个结果:谈判达成的领土自治安排;拒绝这种安排;以及事实上的国家的出现。通过对17个后共产主义中东欧国家的24个少数民族TSG要求的定性比较分析,我们发现:(i)TSG安排成为外部促进的工具,用于管理或预防主要是低能力,只有部分民主国家的暴力冲突;(ii)和平追求的TSG要求最有可能在高能力巩固的民主国家被拒绝;(三)庇护国干预低能力国家的暴力冲突,出现事实上的国家。这些研究结果无视广泛持有的期望,欧洲化的影响,再加上民主巩固,对少数民族索赔的住宿,他们提供了新的见解外部干预的重要性,少数民族TSG索赔的制度成果。
Since 1989, the countries of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) have experienced major institutional transformations. As part of that process, territorial contestations between states and ethnic minorities engendered three outcomes: negotiated territorial self-government (TSG) arrangements; the denial of such arrangements; and the emergence of de-facto states. Through a qualitative comparative analysis of twenty-four minority TSG claims in seventeen post-communist CEE states, we find that: (i) TSG arrangements emerged as externally facilitated instruments for managing or preventing violent conflict in predominantly low-capacity, only partially democratic states; (ii) peacefully pursued TSG claims were most likely to be denied in high-capacity consolidated democracies; and (iii) de-facto states emerged where patron-states intervened in violent conflicts in low-capacity states. These findings defy widely held expectations about the influence of Europeanization, coupled with democratic consolidation, on the accommodation of minority claims; and they offer new insights into the significance of external intervention for the institutional outcomes of ethnic minority TSG claims.
