7 Illicit markets go beyond state borders Illicit trafficking is transnational; some states cannot halt the illicit markets within their borders Spillovers impede states/individuals not directly participating in the illicit trade Targeted foreign assistance provision goes beyond foreign aid for development, can focus on specific spillovers What if an external actor - such as an international organization or another state - directly provides assistance in reaching the capacity needed to constrain an illicit market?
8 Topic area: illicit small arms and light weapons (SALW) When illicit? Diversion from legal markets. Negative externalities resulting from illicit small arms: potentially increases in the likelihood and severity of civil war, political violence, and violent crime Problem-specific foreign assistance targets illicit small arms activity
9 Spillovers specific to illicit small arms Access to illicit small arms varies across time and region (Bourne 2012) Small arms access and acquisition influences conflict and post-conflict dynamics (Strazzari and Tholens 2014; Marsh 2012; Moore 2012; Jackson 2010; Lockyer 2010; Duquet 2009) Increased firearms access results in increased violent crime (Dube et al. 2013) Firearms ownership rates correlate with number of mass shootings (Lankford 2016) Illicit small arms used to protect other illicit trafficking Potentially undermine a state s monopoly on violence
10 Foreign assistance to constrain illicit small arms Examples of foreign assistance: disarmament, demobilization and reintegration destruction of SALW and ammunition stockpile management and security law enforcement, customs and border control
11 Why is foreign assistance focused on illicit markets different? Similar: recipient capacity still matters Different: incentives inherent to illicit markets Even before aid receipt, local actors can earn kickbacks from black markets by allowing operation Government actors may have incentive to actively work against goals of assistance or block the assistance Another opportunity to focus on small assistance flows in an area where the donor and recipient incentive structure is more clear
12 Research questions Under what circumstances is a state more likely to receive targeted assistance focused on constraining an illicit market? While there is a back and forth process, in this project, I only observe when a donor provides assistance and the recipient accepts that assistance. Under what circumstances does foreign assistance to constrain illicit markets divert versus reduce illicit trafficking?
13 To assist or not to assist Why would a donor state provide assistance to constrain illicit small arms? Reaction to potential spillovers Dissuade regional instability Serve as international leader Emergency situations Most motivations result in a desire to effectively constrain illicit markets/spillovers from illicit markets
14 Recipient willingness and capacity Why would a (recipient) state not want to constrain an illicit market? Lack of capacity Lack of willingness (non enforcement as welfare, non enforcement due to corruption) Even if not willing to constrain, may accept assistance funding. May not want assistance funding due to: (donor relationship) geopolitics, security/transparency tradeoffs Interaction between donor and recipient may alter level of recipient s interest and capacity, depending on recipient motivations
15 Table: Role of Potential Recipient State s Willingness in and Capacity for Constraining Illicit Trafficking Capacity Willingness Low High Low Medium High Assistance provision dependent on No assistance provision potential spillovers and/or Assistance provision unlikely emergency circumstances Assistance provision dependent on potential spillovers and/or High likelihood of assistance provision No assistance provision emergency circumstances
16 Tracking seizures from media reports Open source data from media reports, focused on authorities seizing illicit weapons High number of seizures may reflect effective authorities, amount of illicit weapons, or both Lauren Pinson IPES November 18, / 26
17 Illicit Seizures of Small Arms Cross-national, Disaggregated event version of dataset Aggregated country-year version of dataset Open source, drawn from PRIO small arms document archive > 20,000 reports Rich events data Variables include: location (currently only at country level) weapons and ammunition - types and counts other items seized why illegal* seizing authority* indicators such as trial, border, online trafficking Lauren Pinson IPES November 18, / 26
18 Data and variables Unit of analysis: potential donor-potential recipient dyads years Time period: (2015) Focus: OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC) and Official Development Assistance (ODA) focused on limiting illicit small arms
19 Data and variables Dependent variable: OECD-DAC Official Development Assistance commitments focused on limiting availability of illicit small arms (binary) Main independent variable: recipient SALW seizure report(s) in previous year, based on coding of media reports; alternatively light weapons specific reports in previous year Other explanatory variables: Proximity Classic donor strategic interest Recipient need Likely effectiveness

25 Initial Conclusions Suggesting small arms assistance goes towards recipient states showing enforcement of illicit market Distance has negative relationship w probability of targeted assistance Qualitative evidence on importance of spillovers reaching donor states Specific targeted assistance still flows to strategically important states by some measures Relationship with types of US military assistance varies Recipient s signalled interest matters Recipient state s governance quality shows inverse relationship with probability of assistance provision Lauren Pinson IPES November 18, / 26
26 Next steps for project Indicator for emergency aid Evaluate relationship with governance level Holistic account of assistance provision Detailed donor-specific analyses Based on collected budgets of bilateral donors and multilateral donor organizations Considering the role of NGOs and IOs/regional organizations in securing foreign assistance - brokering Analysis of potential neighborhood effects of targeted assistance Case studies focused on relationship between donor and recipient in targeted foreign assistance Lauren Pinson IPES November 18, / 26
