作者提出了一个独特的理论,叛乱集团的行为,使用模糊集的方法。相反的论点,把叛乱团体对非战斗人员的暴力行为的罪责在竞技场的自然资源禀赋或当代冲突的独特性质,作者使用了一个组成部分的定性比较分析表明,存在的“积极的竞争”是至关重要的,在确定的行为类型叛乱团体将显示与当地居民,他们声称代表。使用模糊集分析是不常见的冲突研究,但被证明是一个有价值的替代标准的统计测试。
The author presents a unique theory of insurgent group behavior using a fuzzy-set approach. In contrast to arguments that place the culpability of insurgent group violence toward noncombatants in the arena of natural resource endowments or the distinctive nature of contemporary conflicts, the author uses a component of qualitative comparative analysis to show that the presence of “active rivalry” is critical in determining the type of behavior insurgent groups will display with regard to local populations they claim to represent. The use of fuzzy-set analysis is uncommon in conflict studies yet proves to be a valuable alternative to standard statistical tests.
