2 General Idea: The way in which the state is born affects its domestic conditions for a long time The way in which the state is born affects its international circumstances for a long time There is a linkage between domestic conditions and international behavior
3 Evolutionary State Formation. Evolutionary processes can take on a variety of forms, such as -- Gradual (social contract) evolution of a community into a self-governing entity with state institutions (Persia, Afghanistan) -- Gradual transfer from a colony of an outside state to a selfgoverning state through ordered transfer of power to the indigenous population (Kuwait, Tunisia, Morocco, Jordan) -- Peaceful secession of a state from another state (e.g., the dissolution of Czechoslovakia in 1991) Typical Characteristics. Takes place over a long time; typically involves little or no violence; done by consent.
4 Revolutionary State Formation. -- Anti colonial struggle between indigenous population and colonial power, ending in the withdrawal of the latter and the formation of a state (usually governed by the leadership of the struggle). Examples, Israel, Algeria, Syria -- Violent secession. two social groups belonging to the same state fight each other, leading to formation of two separate states. E.g., Bosnia, Croatia -- General struggles emanating from collapse of an empire and struggles among indigenous peoples previously united under imperial rule. -- Imposed state formation. A state is formed due to outside intervention. E.g., formation of East Germany, Split of Koreas Typical Characteristics. Extends typically under a brief time interval. Involves violence. Generates external opposition.
5 Domestic Implications. Evolutionary state formation typically leads to substantial degree of political stability. Greater chance of democratization. Focus of politics on state building, economic and social development International Implications: Greater chance of acceptance of the new states by the international community in general and by neighboring states, in particular. Consequence: little involvement in international conflict
6 Domestic Implications: Typically, the new regime is domestically insecure, therefore it employs various repressive or diversionary strategies to establish its legitimacy and to generate political stability Struggle against opposition and different ethnic groups in first few years of regime Severe economic problems. Typical expressions of political instability: attempted and successful coups, riots, demonstrations, irregular government change International Implications. New state invokes opposition from other states in region. Fear of domino effect of regime formation
7 Attempts by neighboring states to take advantage of domestic instability and shakiness of new regime by attacking the new state Attempts by new regime to divert attention from domestic problems by scapegoating: initiating aggression against foreign states. Implication: Initially high levels of international conflict. Some conflict initiated by new state, others initiated against the new state Regression to the Mean Principle. These patterns of international conflict involvement of new states wear out after an initial period. Beyond this period, there is a pattern of maturity wherein conflict patterns begin to resemble the average level of involvement by old states.
8 Level of Conflict Involvement High New revolutionary states Normal Low New evolutionary states Years from Independence

10 Political change in existing states has similar effect on states foreign policy as does the form of state formation processes. Evolutionary Political Change consists either of regime change or of government change that occurs without violence and by consent of the government and the key social groups in the state (or the general public). Revolutionary Political Change consists of irregular and abrupt government or regime change and is a forceful process, typically involving some form of forceful action involving some level of violence.
11 Both types of political change in established states tend to have similar effects on the states international behavior as do evolutionary and revolutionary processes of state formation. Evolutionary regime change tends to lower the state s propensity to engage in conflict during the first period after the political change. Revolutionary regime change brings about high levels of conflict involvement by the new regime. Conflict involvement by old revolutionary regimes tends to entail both conflicts initiated by the new regime and conflict initiated by other states and targeted at the new regime.
12 Conflict initiated by the new regime is designed to divert attention from domestic problems and to build legitimacy through diversionary policies. Conflict targeted at the new regime is launched by other states for two reasons: fear of domino effects of revolutionary processes, and opportunity to settle scores or seize opportunities while the regime is internally weak and disorganized.
