The originality of Su’s theoretical claims and the multi-method approach to testing them result in a book that offers an important contribution to the study of conflict that demands the attention of those interested in both comparative politics and international relations.” —Avery Goldstein, David M. Knott Professor Emeritus of Global Politics and International Relations, Inaugural Director of the Center for the Study of Contemporary China, University of Pennsylvania “This book exemplifies the innovative fusion of the classic level-of-analysis approach in international relations. It convincingly explains how prior rebellion experience can shape leaders’ preference for initiating international conflict as a response to domestic unrest. Ruolin's rigorous research design provides both strong quantitative and qualitative evidence for her theory. This book is a must-read for any scholar interested in the interaction between internal and international conflicts.” —Chong Chen, Associate Professor of International Relations, Tsinghua University From the civil wars in Colombia, Nepal, and Syria, to the revolutions in Ukraine and Kyrgyzstan, and the fervent uprisings of the Arab Spring, recent decades have vividly demonstrated that rebellion is in the air. In this groundbreaking study, Ruolin Su delves into the intricate dynamics of violent policy choices made by rebel leaders amid domestic turmoil. How does a history of rebellion shape a leader's inclination towards violence when they ascend to power? When do these leaders turn to violence abroad, and to what extent does it bolster their hold on power at home? This book is an indispensable resource for political scientists and scholars dedicated to understanding the complexities of post-rebellion states and international security. Ruolin Su (Ph.D., University of Pennsylvania) is an associate professor of international relations at the School of International and Public Affairs, Shanghai Jiao Tong University. Her research is primarily focused on international security, foreign policy analysis, and political psychology. 0aComparative government.967598 0aTerrorism.960374 0aPolitical violence.969776 0aAsiaxPolitics and government.96965814aComparative Politics.96038624aTerrorism and Political Violence.96977824aAsian Politics.9696612 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978981976249108iPrinted edition:z978981976251408iPrinted edition:z978981976252140uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-97-6250-7  aZDB-2-POS  aZDB-2-SXPI  c63889d63889
