This paper describes a method for the measurement of root causes of conflicts, as defined in a checklist drawn up by the European Commission’s External Relations Directorate General (DG RELEX) and used for monitoring and early warning. Our approach uses Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) to measure these conflict indicators on a corpus composed of news articles extracted from the Europe Media Monitor (EMM) archive.
