Abstract:
|
We present a theory of ethnic conflict in which
coalitions formed along ethnic lines compete for the economy's
resources. The role of ethnicity is to enforce coalition
membership: in ethnically homogeneous societies members of the
losing coalition can defect to the winners at low cost, and this
rules out conflict as an equilibrium outcome. We derive a number
of implications of the model relating social, political, and
economic indicators such as the incidence of conflict, the distance among ethnic groups,
group sizes, income inequality, and expropriable resources. |
