What kinds of international conflicts make states more likely to increase repression? I argue that the issues at stake in conflict may have different levels of domestic salience and may alter the domestic political status quo, thus increasing or decreasing a state’s or regime’s propensity to repress. I argue and find that democracies are most likely to increase repression when they are territorial revisionists, specifically increasing the use of imprisonment and torture. Autocratic states are more likely to increase repression during foreign policy-oriented disputes, as opposed to those fought over territory, which are less likely to escalate to full-scale war, and more likely to be domestically motivated. This project thus opens up the black box of international conflict to better understand how the reasons states fight abroad affects decisions to repress at home.

修正主义冲突和国家镇压

什么样的国际冲突使国家更有可能加强镇压?我认为,冲突中的问题可能具有不同程度的国内显着性,并可能改变国内政治现状,从而增加或减少一个国家或政权的镇压倾向。我认为并发现,当民主国家是领土修正主义者时,它们最有可能增加镇压,特别是增加使用监禁和酷刑。与为领土而战的国家相比,专制国家更有可能在以外交政策为导向的争端中加强镇压,后者不太可能升级为全面战争,更有可能是出于国内动机。
