Measuring ethnic fractionalization in Africa (2004, background): “1Measures of ethnic diversity have also become standard variables in analyses of civil conflict (Annett 2001; Collier 1998; Elbadawi and Sambanis 2002; Reyna-Querol 2002), the quality of governance (La Porta et al. 1999), and even the origins of property rights (Keefer and Knack 2002).”
A Closer Look at Oil, Diamonds, and Civil War (2006, background): “…manuscript; Fearon & Laitin 2003; Fearon 2004; Lujala, unpublished 2002 manuscript; de Soysa & Neumayer, unpublished manuscript; Humphreys 2005; Lujala et al. 2005), but others have found these correlations to be weak or nonexistent (Elbadawi & Sambanis 2002, Smith 2004, Regan & Norton 2005).”
Aiding Violence or Peace? The Impact of Foreign Aid on the Risk of Civil Conflict in Sub-Saharan Africa (2009, methodology): “We follow Elbadawi and Sambanis (2002) by modeling the probability of observing conflict cit conditional on a vector xit and a lagged conflict dummy ci,t−1.17 This modeling approach integrates the separate onset and duration approaches.”
Democracy and armed conflict (2014, background): “The existence of this ‘inverted U’ has been challenged, however (Elbadawi & Sambanis, 2002; Collier & Hoeffler, 2004; Vreeland, 2008).7 In any case, very few studies find traces of a monotonic effect of democracy.”
Climate variability, economic growth, and civil conflict (2012, background): “While several studies (e.g. Collier & Hoeffler, 2004; Fearon & Laitin, 2003) find that democracy is not a good predictor of the probability of intrastate conflict, others (e.g. Gleditsch & Ruggeri, 2010; Elbadawi & Sambanis, 2002) show that democracy has a negative effect on civil conflict onset.”
Environmental changes and violent conflict (2012, background): “…fact that poor economic performance—either temporary or persistent—breeds violent conflict (e.g. Blattman and Miguel 2010, Hegre and Sambanis 2006, Miguel et al 2004, Collier and Hoeffler 2002, 2004, Fearon and Laitin 2003, Elbadawi and Sambanis 2002, Hess and Orphanidis 1995, Russett 1987).”
Civil wars and economic growth: A regional comparison (2002, background): “1On the causes and consequences of civil wars, see Collier and Hoeffler (1998; 2002), Collier and Sambanis (2002), Collier et al. (1999), Elbadawi and Ndung’u (2000), Elbadawi and Sambanis (2000; 2002), and Sambanis (2001; 2002).”
Poverty and Violent Conflict: A Micro-Level Perspective on the Causes and Duration of Warfare (2009, neutral): “3 See, amongst others, Collier and Hoeffler (1998, 2004), Collier et al. (2003, 2004), Doyle and Sambanis (2006), Elbadawi and Sambanis (2002) , Fearon (2004), Fearon and Laitin (2003), Keen (1997, 1998), Ross (2006).”
Economic Shocks and Civil Conflict: An Instrumental Variables Approach (2004, background): “Elbadawi and Sambanis (2002) study the incidence of civil war, defined as “the probability of observing either a new war onset or the continuation of an ongoing war or both” (p. 307), and confirm most of Collier and Hoeffler’s findings on the role of economic factors.”
Climate Shocks and Sino-nomadic Conflict (2011, background): “1 Studies have identified a variety of factors, ranging from labor market conditions (Collier & Hoeffler, 1998, 2001, 2002) and economic growth (Elbadawi & Sambanis, 2002; Fearon & Laitin, 2003; Miguel et al., 2004) to ethnic fractionalization and democracy (Sambanis, 2002), as having an effect on…”
Do UN Interventions Cause Peace? Using Matching to Improve Causal Inference (2008, background): “Elbadawi and Sambanis (2002) combine both approaches.”
What Do We Know about Natural Resources and Civil War? (2004, background): “Recent studies have drawn upon four civil war datasets: Collier & Hoeffler (2002a), Fearon & Laitin (2003), Elbadawi & Sambanis (2002), and Gleditsch et al. (2002, also known as the Uppsala dataset).17 These datasets, in turn, draw on the pioneering ‘Correlates of War’ civil wars dataset compiled…”
Natural Resources and Violent Conflict: Resource Abundance, Dependence and the Onset of Civil Wars (2009, background): “Elbadawi and Sambanis (2002) question the robustness of the resource-war link.”
