The relationship between militarization and state formation in the West has been the subject of considerable scholarship,1 and there is thus some temptation to simply transfer concepts and arguments from that domain to the study of Third World militarization. Yet state formation dynamics in the two contexts were and are quite different, with important implications for the nature of national sec...

This paper challenges the received wisdom that mediation is a weak institution. Much of this perspective is supported by variations of three arguments. First, mediators often do not have access to privileged information, beyond what is relayed to them by disputants. Second, mediators recommendations need to be self-enforcing as they are not backed by appropriate enforcement institutions. Third,...

Events in Ferguson and Baltimore in the United States in the past 3 years have brought to light issues related to the militarization of police and adverse police–citizen interactions. Through federal programs and grants, local law enforcement agencies have been able to acquire surplus military items to combat terrorism and drug activity. The acquisition of these items has accelerated over the p...

A central question in political science is how to best manage information asymmetries and commitment problems when disputes arise between states. We argue that existing work miss an important feature: dispute settlement institutions shape the incentives for entering disputes. Because war is the down-side risk from entering a dispute, institutions that reduce the chances of war-fighting may incr...

We argue theoretically that border enforcement emerged as a policy response to a moral panic about the perceived threat of Latino immigration to the United States propounded by self-interested bureaucrats, politicians, and pundits who sought to mobili...

Historically, undocumented Mexican farm workers migrated circularly, leaving family behind in Mexico on short trips to the United States. Scholars have argued that border militarization has disrupted circular migration as the costs of crossing the border lead to longer stays, increased settlement, and changing transnational family practices. Yet, no study has explored changes in the transnation...

We study countries choosing armament levels and then whether or not to go to war. We show that if the costs of war are not overly high or low, then all equilibria must involve dove, hawk, and deterrent strategies and the probability of war is positive (but less than one) in any given period. Wars are between countries with differing armament levels and the frequency of wars is tempered by the p...
