Francisco Publisher: Springer Print ISBN: 9780387752419, 0387752412 eText ISBN: 9780387752426, 0387752420 Copyright year: 2009 Format: PDF Available from $ 109.00 USD SKU 9780387752426 The mechanisms of protest and revolution have been the subject of theoretical research for over a century, yet the lack of data has hindered the empirical validation of conflicting theories. In this book, the author presents a unique new set of sub-daily data from over thirty countries and seven civil wars and uses them to test two models of conflict, the predator-prey model and the competing species model. The dynamic nature of the data modelling and the novelty of the dataset make this work a unique contribution to the field of conflict research. Dynamics of Conflict will help to re-evaluate existing theories and chart a new course towards the formal and statistical modelling of conflict.
