Abstract

The Collier-Hoeffler model is extended in two ways: first by examining the possibility of altogether avoiding the conflict if mutual concessions are agreed upon, and, second, to include the application of repression and reprisals by the government as deterrence for the guerrillas staging the rebellion. By allowing the fighting effectiveness to differ for the two sides, the effect of other factors such as terrain on the development of guerrilla forces is examined. Combinations of high repression and low inclusion in power sharing seem to be conducive to the onset of a civil war. Moreover, the application in the Greek civil war shows that persecutions tended to inflame the severity of the conflict, rather than suppress it.
