Security Sector Reform Stability Post

项目摘要

Reducing different manifestations of collective, political violence after the end of intrastate war is an important condition for the stabilization and development of post-war societies. Scholars and practitioners alike thereby agree that security sector reform (SSR) that disarms and demobilizes ex-combatants and that alters structures and conduct of the military, police, and judiciary is among the most vital elements to ensure reducing violence and contributing to post-war peace. However, SSR has been more successful in some cases than in others. The proposed research project thus asks under what conditions SSR increases the stability of post-war peace. We argue that previous research on post-war SSR is thus far insufficiently equipped to answer this research question due to three shortcomings. Theoretically, peacebuilding research on SSR is little embedded in the wider political science debate of post-war institutional reform and thus misses out on important explanatory factors of post-war peace. Methodologically, past research predominantly employs single-case study research designs and thus rarely allows for formulating generalizations of findings. Empirically, those studies that do compare SSR in different cases, often stay within one world region, and are thus inapt to discover mechanisms of SSR that work across cultural contexts.This project addresses these shortcomings. In answering the question under what conditions SSR does increase the stability of post-war peace, it focuses on the central question of political control that is at the core of the institutional reform debate, but that has not been captured adequately by past research on SSR. We argue that key to the effect of SSR on post-war peace is the question of how domestic conflict parties and international actors control an SSR process in the aftermath of a civil war. Methodologically and empirically, the project will thereby make use of a mix of qualitative and quantitative methods to analyze the role of SSR for the stability of post-war peace. First, it uses inductive, theory-building case studies with fieldwork in El Salvador, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), and Nepal to refine hypotheses, identify causal mechanisms, and select more specific variables for the statistical analysis. Second, these case studies will be complemented by statistical survival analysis on a novel, global dataset on features of SSR in post-war countries that will be used for theory testing and for formulating generalizations of our findings.

减少国内战争结束后不同表现形式的集体政治暴力是战后社会稳定和发展的重要条件。因此，学者和实践者一致认为，安全部门改革（SSR）能够解除前战斗人员的武装和复员，并改变军队、警察和司法机构的结构和行为，是确保减少暴力和促进战后和平的最重要因素之一。然而，SSR 在某些情况下比其他情况更成功。因此，拟议的研究项目询问在什么条件下苏维埃社会主义共和国可以提高战后和平的稳定性。我们认为，由于三个缺陷，以往关于战后 SSR 的研究迄今为止还不足以回答这个研究问题。从理论上讲，关于SSR的建设和平研究很少嵌入战后制度改革的更广泛的政治学辩论中，因此错过了战后和平的重要解释因素。从方法论上来说，过去的研究主要采用单案例研究设计，因此很少考虑对研究结果进行概括。从经验上看，那些在不同情况下比较 SSR 的研究通常局限于一个世界区域，因此无法发现跨文化背景的 SSR 机制。该项目解决了这些缺点。在回答在什么条件下SSR确实能增强战后和平稳定性的问题时，它关注的是政治控制这一核心问题，这是制度改革辩论的核心，但过去的SSR研究并未充分抓住这一点。我们认为，苏维埃社会主义共和国对战后和平影响的关键是国内冲突各方和国际行为者在内战后如何控制苏维埃社会主义共和国进程的问题。因此，该项目将在方法论和实证上综合运用定性和定量方法来分析SSR对战后和平稳定的作用。首先，它利用归纳性、理论构建的案例研究以及萨尔瓦多、刚果民主共和国 (DRC) 和尼泊尔的实地考察来完善假设，确定因果机制，并选择更具体的变量进行统计分析。其次，这些案例研究将得到对战后国家 SSR 特征的新颖全球数据集的统计生存分析的补充，该数据集将用于理论测试和对我们的研究结果进行概括。
