Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research project analyzes why and how wars are fought by looking at the types of political and economic resources conflict zones possess. Its main contributions are summarized in the following three research papers. The first paper offers a formal theory that explains why powerful international actors promote democracy in some instances and dictators in other instances. An empirical analysis using an original data set supports the theory's empirical implications. The second paper explores the political-economic determinants of military strategy during war to explain the intensity of suffering that certain conflict zones and their inhabitants suffer due to aerial bombing and landmines. The third paper demonstrates that political institutions and goods at stake have considerable effects on the functioning of nuclear deterrence, refining the logic of nuclear deterrence theory.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
国内秩序と国家間関係の安定が民主化と国家建設を通じて達成される条件とメカニズムを解明し、戦後の平和構築の可能性、さらには日本の対外援助を通じた民主化と国家建設における貢献の可能性を示した。また、経済資源が爆撃や地雷埋設などの戦争被害の形を決定するメカニズムに科学的な説明を与えることで、戦地における人々の苦しみを低減するための政策的示唆を与えた。最後に、北朝鮮やパキスタンに代表されるアジアの非民主的な核新興国がもたらす安全保障上の脅威が叫ばれる中、本研究はそれらの国が核抑止に与える影響について科学的な知見をもたらした。
