SUMMARY:Development and political economy seminar - Arthur Silve
DTSTART:20221216T110000Z

DESCRIPTION:With a global security infrastructure that deters interstate wa
 rs\, states establish a reputation of resolve by supporting rebellions abro
 ad. Co-ethnicity\, in particular\, is used as a narrative by potential spon
 sor states who want to build their reputation. Our theory predicts that: i)
  a state with more co-ethnic groups in its neighborhood is more likely to s
 upport a foreign co-ethnic rebellion\, and ii) ethnic groups whose potentia
 l sponsors count more co-ethnic groups in their neighborhood benefit from h
 igher political inclusion. The first result shows that states invest in the
 ir reputation\, and the second one that such a strategy is effective. We te
 st the empirical plausibility of the two predictions with a data set of mor
 e than 280\,000 ethnic group × sponsor state × target state × year obser
 vations. Our findings lend credence to reputation building as a determinant
  of a sponsor state’s activism in a target country\, even when we focus o
 n the most reasonably exogenous source of identification—namely\, changes
  in the ethnic structures of countries outside the considered country pair.
  We also show that the reputation-building mechanism translates into politi
 cal concessions in the target states that are beneficial to groups related 
 to reputed dangerous potential sponsors.\\n\\nContact: Timothée Demont :
