- W238682261 abstract "Introduction In every armed conflict civilians suffer from the consequences of the war in various ways, but in many conflicts civilians are also the deliberate targets of violence. Considering the political costs attached to targeting civilians in civil wars, which should both complicate future popular support in a post-conflict society and risk the condemnation of the international community, it is puzzling that warring parties choose such tactics. When targeting of civilians takes place during an armed conflict one can suspect it to be used instrumentally by the warring parties in order to improve their positions militarily in the war. However, surprisingly few studies focus on how violence against civilians in war is related to the military outcome on the battlefield. Furthermore, most research on targeting of civilians tends to study either governments or rebel groups.1 When only taking the behaviour of one of the actors into consideration, most of the interaction process of the conflict dynamics is lost. The aim of this paper is to study how targeting civilians may be used by governments and rebel groups as a technique of violence in intrastate conflicts. More specifically, this study focuses on how direct violence against civilians may be linked to the bargaining process of the war. In short, I argue that extreme parties experiencing a military setback may choose to change their tactics in order to stay in the game. Targeting civilians becomes a way of displaying one’s resolve to improve one’s future bargaining range and to raise the price for continued fighting. The empirical findings" @default.
