  1. 1. Climate Variability and Interstate Conflict : In the Arctic Region

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för freds- och konfliktforskning

    Author : Anna Svedin; [2022]
    Keywords : climate variability; interstate conflict; militarized interstate incidents; Arctic;

    Abstract : This thesis draws on the climate-conflict research field to explore the question how does climate variability affect interstate conflict? This thesis contributes to various gaps in previous research by studying interstate conflict while most climate-conflict research investigates internal conflict, by using a new operationalization of climate variability as sea ice extent, and by studying an understudied case, the Arctic region. The theoretical argument consists of two parallel processes, a background mechanism focused on long-term climate change and a main mechanism focused on short-term climate variability. READ MORE

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Author : Martin Lundqvist; [2017]
    Keywords : World government; anarchy; security dilemma; rational choice realism; delegation constraint;

    Abstract : A central paradox in neorealism is that the absence of world government is assumed to imply a dangerous security dilemma, and yet few realists have argued in favor of world government while great powers have historically resisted delegation of military force to supranational institutions. If international anarchy causes costly security competition and war, powerful states should have a strong incentive to unify and neorealist explanations for why states resist peaceful unification are either underdeveloped or implicit.
