Project Grant 2215023
- This three-year, $546,040 National Science Foundation project grant funds research on cooperation in multi-party civil conflicts. The grant supports the creation of a comprehensive dataset on cooperation between combatants in 12 complex multi-party civil wars since the Cold War. Researchers will analyze how past cooperative attempts within and across government-rebel group dyads influence future cooperation and conflict outcomes. They will also evaluate the diffusion of cooperation across...
- This federal Project Grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), provides $101,769 to the University of Connecticut to develop a new measurement strategy and public dataset to track territorial control by non-state actors within conflict zones over time. The project, titled "Subnational Nonstate Actor Governance (SNAG)," utilizes machine learning and natural language processing techniques to automatically detect...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under CFDA 47.075 (Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences) will provide $200,000 in funding to the University of Chicago to conduct collaborative research examining how organizations have sought to resolve international crises and strengthen governance and trust globally. The research will trace efforts from the end of World War I to the present, drawing on history, international relations, sociology, and political science to understand the...
- This Project Grant award of $442,321 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Social and Economic Sciences supports research at Syracuse University to create a comprehensive global dataset on interstate and intrastate war since 1750. The project aims to answer three key questions: 1) Has the frequency of war declined over time? 2) Are some regions more peaceful than others? 3) Has interstate war declined while intrastate war has increased? The resulting dataset and research...
- This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $200,000 awarded on February 1, 2022 will fund research to gather and analyze survey data on citizen perspectives regarding peace, security, and human rights in a post-conflict environment. Under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), the University of Massachusetts will field three public opinion surveys in a post-conflict country using random domain intercept technology to collect anonymous samples. The...
- This National Science Foundation award under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) provides $106,466 to The University of Iowa to fund research using laboratory experiments to study individual and team behavior in indefinitely repeated games. The research team will analyze subjects' actions and written or verbal communications as they participate in prisoner's dilemma and public good games with varying conditions over the one-year period from August 1, 2022 to...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) provides $836,874 to the University of Maryland, College Park from October 2022 through September 2025. The award will fund research on the effectiveness of drones, air power, and modern coercion in armed conflict. Specifically, the Principal Investigator will generate new cross-country data on the use of offshore military capabilities in interstate disputes from 2001-2021...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant, awarded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, provides $284,853 to the University of Maine System to conduct collaborative research on how cooperation dynamics drive organizational outcomes. The project aims to improve understanding of organizational evolution by testing a novel theory of organizational change based on "altruistic stress" - the psychological stress from unreciprocated cooperative...
- This $128,641 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports the Sub-National Nonstate Actor Governance (SNAG) project at Vanderbilt University. The project introduces a new measurement strategy and public dataset to track territorial control by state and nonstate actors within conflict zones over time. Utilizing machine learning and natural language processing techniques, the researchers will analyze...
- This Project Grant award of $195,771 from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports the Subnational Nonstate Actor Governance (SNAG) project at Michigan State University. The project aims to develop a new measurement strategy and public dataset to track territorial control by nonstate actors at the local level within conflict zones over time. This research will use machine learning and natural language processing techniques to...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) provides $493,504 to create a novel dataset and conduct research on cooperation in multi-dyadic civil conflicts. Led by researchers at the University of Iowa, the project will develop the Cooperation in Civil War: Multi-Dyadic Conflicts Dataset covering 12 post-Cold War countries. This dataset will capture the evolution of cooperative relationships between governments and multiple rebel groups over time. The research team will then analyze how past cooperative attempts within and across dyads influence future cooperation and conflict outcomes. They will also evaluate the diffusion of cooperation across networks of combatants and how cooperation in one form impacts other cooperative efforts. The results of this study aim to advance understanding of conflict management and peace processes by treating cooperation as an iterative process revealing information about credibility. The funding period is from August 1, 2022 to July 31, 2025.
