- 요약Do imposed economic sanctions increase the risk of civil conflict in target countries? If so, where is conflict more likely to occur? And why is conflict more likely to occur in these regions? To answer these questions, I begin with the notion that after sanctions are imposed, a target regime is compelled to alter capacity-related government spending to preserve its hold on power. However, drawing on the territorial politics literature, I reveal that the reallocation of dwindling revenues is a distinct spatial phenomenon, a form of redistribution that strengthens state capacity in the geographic center of power but at the expense of targets' reach into more peripheral regions of the state. I demonstrate that, as a result, target regimes can preserve the status quo and thus forestall would-be rebels from forming in the urban core, but in the rural periphery, a decrease in spending on public goods and services together with a deteriorating capacity to detect and deter would-be insurgents increases individuals' willingness and opportunity to rebel. Findings indicate that sanctions' negative impact on state capacity significantly increases the risk of rural rebel group formation but has no effect on the formation of rebel groups in major urban areas. Finally, I demonstrate that because sanctions weaken target regimes in peripheral regions of the country, peripheral rebel forces are incentivized to use violence against the state to accomplish their political objectives, compelling targets employ a strategy of containment (i.e., preventing rebellions from spreading beyond the periphery) rather than a robust counterinsurgency approach, as sanctions-induced resource constraints render such an approach too costly for sanctioned regimes. In the capital, however, target regimes employ a strategy of deterrence due to its high strategic importance, which discourages rebels from targeting the seat of power and reduces the risk of civil conflict therein.
