The London School of Economics and Political Science the Socio The London School of Economics and Political Science The Socio-Economic Spill-over Effects of Armed Conflict on Neighbouring Countries Thomas Höhne-Sparborth A thesis submitted to the Department of International Development of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, January 2018 Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the MPhil/PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 99,118 words. 2 Abstract This thesis explores the channels by which armed conflict may have wider regional effects through socio-economic spill-over effects. Collier (1999) has explored the economic consequences of civil war and other authors such as Murdoch and Sandler (2004) and de Groot (2010) have sought to verify the existence of neighbourhood effects through quantitative, large-N studies. These studies have only found mixed evidence of a net negative effect and have failed to identify the channels through which conflict affects neighbouring countries. This thesis adopts a case study approach to complement the longitudinal studies that have dominated the analysis of spill-over effects, focusing its primary case study on the example of Zambia, which experienced prolonged exposure to conflicts in Rhodesia, Mozambique, Angola and the DRC. Progressing from a survey of potential spill-over effects postulated in the existing literature, this thesis finds that the actual neighbourhood effects on Zambia have been more numerous and more ambiguous than previously acknowledged. In separate chapters on trade and investment, human capital and migration, food security, and military expenditure, this thesis assesses the range of effects by which these conflicts affected Zambia’s development. The thesis argues that trade and investment, agricultural policies, food security, and the escalation of government debt were affected by the pattern of regional instability, often in unexpected ways that defy easy generalisation. In addition to the Zambian case, the thesis offers a comparison with examples from Malawi, Belize, Jordan and Thailand. These supporting case studies demonstrate that the mechanisms identified in the study have widespread relevance in varied conflict situations, but that the net effect of individual channels of spill-over are dependent on local risk factors and policies. The thesis concludes with the provision of a framework outlining the various channels by which spill-over occurs, the risk factors involved, and possible policy responses. 3 Acknowledgements This thesis was completed over a five-year period and inevitably benefited from innumerable instances of advice, support and guidance, without which this thesis could not have been completed in its present form. Although I cannot hope to fully repay the kindness with which countless individuals provided various forms of input, I gratefully acknowledge their contributions, even if not all such persons could be mentioned individually below. First, I would like to express my gratitude to my supervisors, Dr. Elliott Green and Dr. Rajesh Venugopal, whose expert academic insight helped provide structure and direction to this thesis. Their keen eye proved to be an invaluable guide to the methods and pitfalls of doctoral research, helped sift the wheat from the chaff and distil the thesis’ core argument into a clearer whole. Financial support for this thesis was also provided by the Department for International Development, as well as the Newby Trust. The grant provided by the Newby Trust facilitated the field research component of this thesis in Zambia, and contributed greatly to the depth of insight this thesis has been able to provide. I am also grateful to my employer, Roskill Information Services, for helping to facilitate time off for these extended field trips. It is my fervent hope that the findings of this thesis will be deemed a fruitful result of all these forms of generosity. The success of these field trips, moreover, also benefited notably from the selfless support of several other individuals and institutions. I am grateful to the staff of the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and Ms. Annie Lane for agreeing to provide me with an office to work from while in Lusaka, as well as several useful introductions. Anthony Lippmann, David Weight and Dr. Laura Tilling provided helpful introductions to contacts in the Zambian Copperbelt and helped ensure a smooth landing upon my arrival in Zambia. Contacting hard-to-reach individuals in Zambia was also made much easier with the assistance and connections of fellow academics, including Dr. Sishuwa Sishuwa and Dr. Hugh MacMillan at the University of Oxford, as well as Dr. Marja Hinfelaar and others at the South African Institute for Policy and Research in Lusaka (SAIPAR). The highlight of my field work in Zambia, certainly, were the interviews and conversations with numerous individuals, whose diverse backgrounds provided unique perspectives I could not have hoped to have gleaned from any other source. It is a testimony to the open and welcoming nature of Zambia’s society that, with few exceptions, contacts were glad to speak with a foreign stranger, and dealt with my questions with patience and understanding. 4 Appendix 1 provides an overview of the formal interviews conducted as part of this research, but the many informal conversations over the course of my stay contributed immeasurably to piecing together Zambia’s rich history. A particular thank you goes out to Mabvuto Chibende, whose keen mind and interest in his country were a great aid to this research. Mabvuto not only helped me understand Zambia’s culture and society, but also provided valuable archival research assistance, and assisted with undertaking several supplementary interviews with contacts who I had not been able to speak with during my own stays in Zambia. Mabvuto’s mother, Ethel Chibende, also proved to be a warm-hearted host and excellent guide to Mufulira and other locations in Zambia’s Copperbelt and made the time spent away feel like a home away from home. Naturally, this work also benefited in many subtle ways from the endless support of my family and my girlfriend, whose love and dedication helped me stay the course and maintain my sanity during the long hours that were needed to complete this work. I can hardly imagine the patience that must have been required to entertain my many loose thoughts and ideas, or the sympathy needed to appreciate the inevitably hectic periods when completion of the thesis took primacy over other aspects of life. It is because of this support that this thesis did not come to represent a hardship, but was completed as a project of passion. Finally, I would like to conclude with a specific expression of gratitude to my father, whose limitless interest in this thesis and encyclopaedic historical knowledge helped spot many factual errors. His assistance in bringing order to a veritable heap of archival data made a radical difference in my ability to review this material and I know of few other persons who would as willingly have read through repeated iterations of the chapters in this thesis, especially when many of these were still in a barely-readable shape. 5 Contents Declaration .............................................................................................................................................. 2 Abstract ................................................................................................................................................... 3 Acknowledgements ................................................................................................................................. 4 Contents .................................................................................................................................................. 6 List of tables ............................................................................................................................................ 9 List of figures ......................................................................................................................................... 10 Part 1: Background ..................................................................................................................... 12 1 Introduction .................................................................................................................................. 13 1.1 Portugal: An example ............................................................................................................ 13 1.2 The argument ........................................................................................................................ 15 1.3 Methodology ......................................................................................................................... 20 1.4 Selection of primary case study ...........................................................................................

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Goldsmiths Research Online Manuscript submission to Contemporary Politics - Original Article Title: Recognition and Rebel Authority: Elite-Grassroots Relations in Myanmar’s Ethnic Insurgencies Author: David Brenner: [email protected] Lecturer in International Relations Department of Politics University of Surrey Guildford, GU2 7XH, United Kingdom Research Associate Global South Unit Department of International Relations The London School of Economics (LSE) Houghton Street, London, WC2A 2AE, United Kingdom Recognition and Rebel Authority: Elite-Grassroots Relations in Myanmar’s Ethnic Insurgencies ABSTRACT: This article contributes to the emerging scholarship on the internal politics of non-state armed groups and rebel governance by asking how rival rebel leaders capture and lose legitimacy within their own movement. It explores this question by drawing on critical social theory and ethnographic field research on Myanmar’s most important ethnic armed groups: the Karen and Kachin insurgencies. The article finds that authority relations between elites and grassroots in these movements are not primarily linked to the distributional outcomes of their insurgent social orders, as a contractualist understanding of rebel governance would suggest. It is argued that the authority of rebel leaders in both analysed movements rather depends on whether they address their grassroots’ claim to due and proper recognition, enabling the latter to derive self-perceived positive social identities through affiliation to the insurgent collective. This contributes to our understanding of the role that authority relations between differently situated elite and non-elite insurgents play in the factional contestation within rebel movements.

It articulates the territorial limits of sovereignty2 and represents the ideology behind the doctrine of modern nation-states. Accordingly, every political state must have a definite territorial boundary which corresponds with differences of culture and language. Moreover, territorial sovereignty is absolute, indivisible and mutually exclusive, as set out by the 1648 Treaty of Westphalia.

  • INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background 1.1.1 National Population And
    CHAPTER ONE: INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background By the dictates of their profession, military personnel are particularly vulnerable to engagement in casual sex with non – regular partners and at a higher risk of contracting sexually transmitted infections (including HIV) than the general population. Their frequent mobility, nvolvement in international peace keeping operations, patronage of commercial sex workers makes them more at risk. The higher vulnerability to pre/extramarital sex and HIV/AIDS could probably also be attributed to the fact that, globally, the military cu ture, at least until recently, had traditionally fostered the habit of heavy smoking, high alcohol consumption and increased risk taking (UNAIDS, 2006). Military personnel have average expendable income which can be abused to purchase sex from women in the surrounding areas especially when they are deployed in operations away from their homes. This provides circumstances in which they are likely to engage in casual sex, posing a big risk for HIV infection. The military implies a combat force of men and women w take up the challenge of voluntarily being trained as officers and soldiers to perform the titutional duty of defending the nation from external and internal aggression (ZDF 2006). As Abel (1998) puts it, military organizations are anchors of national security, nation building, and good governance, and are indispensable in national and international peace and humanitarian relief operations. 1.1.1 National population and military profile The Zambian military and other sectors of the security force constitute a reasonable size of the adult overall population and an important pool of human resource. Military personnel in the armed forces constitute about 10 percent of the Zambian government work force (ZDF 2007).

  • Transnational Ethnic Communities and Rebel Groups' Strategies in a Civil Conflict
    Transnational Ethnic Communities and Rebel Groups’ Strategies in a Civil Conflict The case of the Karen National Union rebellion in Myanmar Bethsabée Souris University College London (UCL) 2020 A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science I, Bethsabée Souris, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis 1 2 Abstract Few studies have systematically analysed how transnational ethnic kin groups affect the behaviour of domestic ethnic groups in an insurgency, in particular how they have an effect on the types of activities they conduct and their targets. The research question of this study is: What are the mechanisms through which transnational ethnic kin groups influence the domestic rebel ethnic group’s strategies? This thesis analyses the influence of transnational communities on domestic challengers to the state as a two-step process. First, it investigates under which conditions transnational ethnic kin groups provide political and economic support to the rebel ethnic group. It shows that networks between rebel groups and transnational communities, which can enable the diffusion of the rebel group’s conflict frames, are key to ensure transnational support. Second, it examines how such transnational support can influence rebel groups’ strategies. It shows that central to our understanding of rebel groups’ strategies is the cohesion (or lack thereof) of the rebel group. Furthermore, it identifies two sources of rebel group’s fragmentation: the state counter-insurgency strategies, and transnational support. The interaction of these two factors can contribute to the fragmentation of the group and in turn to a shift in the strategies it conducts.

  • Chapter 3, Section 1 – China and Continental Southeast Asia.Pdf
    CHAPTER 3 CHINA AND THE WORLD SECTION 1: CHINA AND CONTINENTAL SOUTHEAST ASIA Key Findings • China’s pursuit of strategic and economic interests in Burma (Myanmar), Thailand, Cambodia, and Laos often jeopardizes regional environmental conditions, threatens government ac- countability, and undermines commercial opportunities for U.S. firms. • China has promoted a model of development in continental Southeast Asia that focuses on economic growth, to the exclu- sion of political liberalization and social capacity building. This model runs counter to U.S. geopolitical and business interests as Chinese business practices place U.S. firms at a disadvantage in some of Southeast Asia’s fastest-growing economies, particu- larly through behavior that facilitates corruption. • China pursues several complementary goals in continental Southeast Asia, including bypassing the Strait of Malacca via an overland route in Burma, constructing north-south infra- structure networks linking Kunming to Singapore through Laos, Thailand, Burma, and Vietnam, and increasing export opportunities in the region. The Chinese government also de- sires to increase control and leverage over Burma along its 1,370-mile-long border, which is both porous and the setting for conflict between ethnic armed groups (EAGs) and the Burmese military. Chinese firms have invested in exploiting natural re- sources, particularly jade in Burma, agricultural land in Laos, and hydropower resources in Burma and along the Mekong Riv- er. China also seeks closer relations with Thailand, a U.S. treaty ally, particularly through military cooperation. • As much as 82 percent of Chinese imported oil is shipped through the Strait of Malacca making it vulnerable to disrup- tion.

  • Luregn Lenggenhager Nature Conservation, Development And
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2018 Ruling nature, controlling people: nature conservation, development and war in North-Eastern Namibia since the 1920s Lenggenhager, Luregn Abstract: Recent nature conservation initiatives in Southern Africa such as communal conservancies and peace parks are often embedded in narratives of economic development and ecological research. They are also increasingly marked by militarisation and violence. In Ruling Nature, Controlling People, Luregn Lenggenhager shows that these features were also characteristic of South African rule over the Caprivi Strip region in North-Eastern Namibia, especially in the fields of forestry, fisheries and, ulti- mately, wildlife conservation. In the process, the increasingly internationalised war in the region from the late 1960s until Namibia’s independence in 1990 became intricately interlinked with contemporary nature conservation, ecology and economic development projects. By retracing such interdependencies, Lenggenhager provides a novel perspective from which to examine the history of a region which has until now barely entered the focus of historical research. He thereby highlights the enduring relevance of the supposedly peripheral Caprivi and its military, scientific and environmental histories for efforts to develop a deeper understanding of the ways in which apartheid South Africa exerted state power.
