🚨 New publication alert! 🚨

When do armed groups capture democratic elections, and when do they fail to do so?

In a new study, @andresuribe.bsky.social (@uwmadison.bsky.social) investigates how local party competition can shape the effectiveness of coercion during Colombia’s 2002 Senate elections.

Glad to see this paper with Noah Schouela out and open access at @psrm.bsky.social. There’s a lot written about state capacity and civil war: how state (in)capacity explains when civil wars happen and where and how they are fought.
⚔️What drives the geography and timing of contestation in civil war?

Really happy that this paper is out! As @sebastianvanbaalen.se notes, we hope it has something interesting to say about trajectories of rebel governance, and more broadly about the nature of political development and state formation during war.
🆕 Excited that @andresuribe.bsky.social and my joint work is out 🔓 open-access in @cpsjournal.bsky.social We study under what conditions rebels succeed in establishing rebel governance in areas dominated by the state. A thread 🧵
