Ideology in civil war (2014, background): “Both tenets – descriptive and methodological – have survived at least partially the ‘distress’ (Ron, 2005) of the economic turn.”
Of rulers, rebels, and revenue: State capacity, civil war onset, and primary commodities (2010, background): “Many of these mechanisms characterize rebels as ‘rational predators’ or ‘rational entrepreneurs of violence’ who extract lootable resources in their environment as a means to overthrow the government (e.g. Herbst, 2000; Ron, 2005).”
Natural Resources and Violent Conflict: Resource Abundance, Dependence and the Onset of Civil Wars (2009, background): “Alternatively, resource riches may invite (military) dictatorships and generally oppressive regimes, resulting in genuine grievances among a share of the population (Fearon and Laitin 2003, Ron 2005).”
Do Natural Resources Attract Nonresource FDI? (2013, unknown): “2 Cross-country evidence suggests that natural resources fuel war and conflict (Collier & Hoeffler, 1998, 2004, 2005; Reynal-Querol, 2002; Ross, 2004; Ron, 2005; Fearon, 2005).”
Masters of their domains: The role of state capacity in civil wars (2010, background): “The empirical link between primary commodity exports and civil war onset, however, has recently been questioned (Dunning, 2005; Fearon, 2005; Ron, 2005).”
The Perils of Unearned Income (2008, background): “Free resources increase revolutionary threats as they increase the desirability of revolutionary change, as demonstrated empirically by Collier and Hoeffler (1998; see also Ron 2005).”
The Pungent Smell of 'Red Herrings': Subsoil Assets, Rents, Volatility and the Resource Curse (2010, unknown): “…6 Brunnschweiler and Bulte (2009) also argue that the detrimental effect of natural resources on war and conflict established and further evaluated by Collier and Hoeffler (1998, 2004, 2005), Reynal-Querol (2002), Ross (2004), Ron(2005) and Fearon (2005) among others, is also a “red herring”.”
Political opportunity structures, democracy, and civil war (2010, background): “…as weak states, and theories of the resource curse point to how an increase in income actually can decrease state strength and the governability of countries through the distorting effects of wealth on rent-seeking and other disruptive activities (see e.g. Auty, 1993; Ron, 2005; Ross, 2004).”
