The growing importance of third world countries in the international system brings their potential for conflict and cooperation to the forefront. Given the fact that the East-West conflict tends to intensify the North-South conflict, a general tendency toward more warlike antagonisms is becoming evident within the Third World. In view of this trend, Latin America as a region becomes particularly interesting; conditions here have always led to conflict situations between the various countries, but specific historical factors seem to have kept these conflicts from erupting to the same extent that they have in other regions of the Third World.Conflicts between two states do not suddenly occur. Their virulence rather gradually develops from a mixture of border conflicts, historical animosities, economic disputes, differences in political systems, arms races, and certainly, the influence of the big powers.

AbstractThe current study examined associations between mothers' behavioral profiles during mother‐child conflict interactions and their children's social skills. This person‐centered approach classified 181 mothers according to their levels of emotional responsiveness, intrusiveness, negativity, and engagement facilitation behaviors during an eight‐minute conflict discussion task with their child. Three distinct classes of mothers were identified using latent profile analysis: sensitive/engaged, moderately sensitive/engaged, and insensitive/disengaged. An analysis of covariance indicated that children of mothers in the sensitive/engaged group had significantly higher social skills than children of mothers in the moderately sensitive/engaged and insensitive/disengaged groups. Results suggest that mother‐child conflict interactions may benefit children's social development when mothers facilitate their children's participation in a highly sensitive manner.

In this article, the authors develop and empirically evaluate a general model of the linkages between domestic and international conflict behavior. Much of the literature on domestic international interactions has focused on the structural constraints of the international and domestic systems on leaders' foreign policy decisions. Rather than focusing on structural constraints, the present authors model the influence of the behavior of domestic and international rivals on leader decision making. The impact of rivals' behavior on conflict across the domestic-international nexus has been neglected relative to the role of structural factors. This study helps redress that imbalance. The authors test their model with a statistical analysis of Zaire during the period 1975 to 1992 and find substantial support for the model.

We explore and define the concept of a `rogue' state based on a state's domestic patterns of behavior. We combine measures of domestic gender equality, ethnic discrimination and state repression to identify characteristics of rogue states. Once we have identified rogue states, we perform logistic regression to predict whether rogue states are more likely to be the aggressors during international disputes — whether they are more likely to use force first during interstate conflict, controlling for other possible causes of state use of force. This research adds to a growing body of scholarship in International Relations regarding the behavior of states involved in conflict, which demonstrates that states with higher levels of inequality, repression and violence exhibit higher levels of violence during international disputes and during international crises. This argument is most fully developed within feminist scholarship; however, research in the field of ethno-apolitical conflict has also highlighted the negative impact of domestic discrimination and violence on state behavior at the international level.

A replication of an earlier work (R. J. Rummel, 'The Dimensions of Conflict Behavior Within and Between Nations,' General Systems Yrbk, 1963, 8, 1-50) to obtain additional evidence relative to the dimensions of conflict behavior (CB) & the relationship between domestic & foreign CB. Data were collected across 83 nations on 9 domestic & 13 foreign measures of CB for 1958, 1959, & 1960. From a factor analysis of these data there emerged 2 domestic dimensions: turmoil, & internal war-& 3 foreign dimensions-war, diplomatic, & belligerency. The turmoil dimension compares favorably with a similar dimension derived from the 1955-57 data, while the internal war dimension subsumes the revolutionary & subversive dimensions from the 1955-57 study. The 3 1958-60 foreign dimensions are quite similar to the 3 derived from the 1955-57 foreign measures. From a factor analysis of domestic & foreign CB, the domestic measures separated themselves from the foreign variables, implying only a small relationship between the 2. This relationship was investigated still further with multiple regression. Representative variables were selected on the basis of high r with the dimensions, & those which indexed domestic & foreign dimensions were regressed upon each other to discover the relationship between domestic & foreign CB. The regression yielded a small relationship that increased with a time lag. 3 error variables were used to discover the extent to which systematic bias might distort the conclusions. 2 of these, N of cards per nation in Deadline Data & N of embassies or legations in a country, were found to r highly with the protest variable & also to have high pattern values on the diplomatic dimension. It was concluded that the level of world interest in a nation is related to the tendency for a nation's protests & (to a lesser extent) its expulsion of ambassadors to be reported. Hence, propositions about these 2 conflict measures should be qualified to the extent that the data of nations in which little interest is expressed may not be included in the is from which the propositions are inferred. Modified AA.

In this article we attempt to replicate the hypothesis tested by Rummel and others that external and internal conflict are unrelated. We do this using data for 125 nations for the years 1966-1967. As did Rummel, we use exploratory factor analysis and regression analysis; in addition, we also employ confirmatory factor analysis. Results from confirmatory factor analysis contradict Rummel and reveal moderately strong correlations between internal and external conflict factors. Regression analysis and partial correlations, however, show that zero-order cross-country correlations between internal and external conflict are reduced to insignificance when a control variable, population size, is introduced in the analysis.
