1 Terrorism, Governance, and Development U.S. Department of Defense Minerva Research Initiative (FA ) 2013 AFOSR Trust and Influence Program Review 16 January 2013 Principal Investigators: Eli Berman, Ph.D., UC San Diego Joseph H. Felter, Ph.D., Stanford University David D. Laitin, Ph.D., Stanford University Jason Lyall, Ph.D., Yale University Jacob N. Shapiro, Ph.D., Princeton University Jeremy M. Weinstein, Ph.D., Stanford University
2 Agenda Research questions How we try to answer them Core scientific approach Where we fit in the Trust and Influence portfolio Findings Progress since last review Data Publications People Transitions Conclusion 2
3 Research Questions What explains the variance in how governance and development relate to terrorism and insurgency across conflicts? How can the U.S. and its allies implement governance and development policies to more efficiently (re)build social and economic order in conflict and post-conflict areas? TGD Research Agenda: Development programs A Improved quality of life B Reduced violent conflict and insurgency C 3
4 Why This Matters USAID top 20 recipients, 2011 Country FY Afghanistan 1,438,596,449 2 Haiti 970,910,372 3 Kenya 498,728,751 4 Jordan 460,251,837 5 Pakistan 393,000,846 6 Tanzania 371,859,231 7 South Africa Republic 348,995,068 8 Nigeria 336,053,916 9 Democratic Republic of Congo 265,018, South Sudan 264,407, West Bank/Gaza 245,378, Iraq 242,860, Zambia 229,272, Uganda 221,891, Colombia 192,362, Israel 190,526, Indonesia 182,565, Ethiopia 182,143, Mozambique 175,572, Liberia 168,738,471 Two policy motivations: 1. Traditional development in places with ongoing conflict 2. Development as a tool of counterterrorism and counterinsurgency More than 1.5 billion people live in countries affected by violent conflict. The World Development Report 2011: Conflict, Security, and Development 4
5 TGD Approach Collect best possible data and test theories about the relationships between governance, development, and conflict with attention to identifying causal relationships That requires three research tracks Develop new data sources by working with partners Surveys and field research Randomized impact evaluations 5
6 Findings Six key results from TGD research program Development programs can be politically stabilizing (JPE) Design of development programs is critical (R&R AER, AER P&P) Wealthier regions see more violence and support for VEOs (AJPS, JCR) Both sides pay for causing civilian casualties (AJPS, R&R APSR) Expanded cellular coverage hurts insurgents (R&R AJPS) ICT-based election monitoring displaces corruption (R&R AER) BLUF: Civilian decisions are critical But not in the ways we often think Not about participation on one side or about their political views About creating conditions for them to make small decisions 6

28 Transitions Since Last Review DARPA N7 and XFIN projects draw on TGD research. DARPA funding CTC/ESOC/RAND study to build data from insurgent records captured in Iraq in order to test theories developed by TGD team regarding insurgent organization and compensation practices. ISAF and USAF data audits motivated by interactions with TGD team. USAID OTI released data to TGD team to evaluate their programs in Iraq and will do so for Pakistan once OTI finishes work there. USAF released data to facilitate research in Afghanistan. USAID-Afghanistan is working with TGD team on survey instruments and impact evaluation projects. USAID-Colombia and the Government of Colombia are working with TGD team to evaluate program bringing state presence in former FARC areas. Briefings to CNO Executive Panel, DoD COIN Board, CAC, deploying BCTs, USAID, DFID, and DoS. Defense R&D Canada using TGD data to study relative importance of doctrine versus force levels in explaining 2007 events in Iraq. RAND study on impact of CERP in Afghanistan modeled on TGD work. 28
29 Conclusion When performed correctly, small-scale conditional development programs influence civilian attitudes toward supporting government, encouraging tips. These in turn complement coercive force in suppressing violence and reduce the negative externalities of applying that force. We have a precise, empirically-tested theory of this process. It could enhance current doctrine, which is full of imprecise statements that can endanger forces and civilians by encouraging incorrect deployment of development programs. The theory is applicable to small footprint interventions as well as large. We have built a data infrastructure that will serve others long after our grant is over. 29

31 Project Goals Project goals were designed in response to scientific problems Problem: Lacking basic facts Goal 1: Collect, refine, and archive new facts in a comprehensive open data source to facilitate independent scholarship Problem: Highly-aggregated measures impede study of sub-national factors and can lead to ecological inference problems Problem: Standards of causal inference utilized to study most social programs are not being applied Goal 2: Test theories across a range of conflicts (multicultural), with a range of methodological approaches to develop better theories (multidisciplinary) Goal 3: Build partnerships with key government and civilian aid agencies and set examples of better program evaluation. 31
