政府的偏见如何影响社区冲突中和平协议的前景？政府的偏见已被证明对局部族裔冲突的发生率和动态有很大的影响，但它影响冲突解决的方式仍然没有得到充分探讨。我认为，政府的偏见使冲突各方不太可能克服承诺的问题，因为他们不能相信政府的意愿，以保证或维护他们达成的任何协议。因此，偏见减少了各方达成和平协议的机会。对肯尼亚四个案例的系统比较支持了这一论点。我还区分了与战略利益有关的偏见和与关系有关的偏见，并发现前者更持久，而后者更有可能受到政治更替的影响，从而为建立和平开辟了可能性。
How does government bias affect prospects for peace agreements in communal conflicts? Government bias has been shown to have a strong impact on the incidence and dynamics of localized ethnic conflict, but the way that it affects conflict resolution remains underexplored. I argue that government bias makes the conflict parties less likely to overcome the commitment problem, because they cannot trust the government’s willingness to guarantee or uphold any agreement they reach. Consequently, bias reduces the chances that the parties are able to reach a peace agreement. A systematic comparison of four cases in Kenya provides support for this argument. I also distinguish between bias related to strategic interest and bias related to relationships, and find that the former is more durable, whereas the latter is more likely to be influenced by political turnover, thereby opening up possibilities for peacemaking.
