About

The purpose of this presentation is to examine the strategic logic of reprisal violence in post-conflict states. In particular, it will seek to identify under which conditions reprisal violence emerges in these states and what purposes this violence can serve in changing the effective terms of a peace settlement. It will also specify its relationship with revenge violence and highlight the difficulties associated with empirically detecting reprisal violence in these states. It will conclude with a brief discussion of the policy implications and an agenda for future research.

Please join us! Coffee and tea provided.

Everyone is welcome, but admittance will be on a first come – first served basis.
