ABSTRACT

This article investigates the determinants of terrorist group formation. Using a series of negative binomial regressions with both time and country fixed effects, this paper finds that population, state failure, and civil wars are positive determinants of terrorist group formation. Per capita income has an inverted U-shaped relationship with the incubation of terrorist groups, while regime type is not a significant indicator of the establishment of new terrorist groups. This paper contributes to the existing literature by taking the annual number of newly formed terrorist groups as the dependent variable and extending the time frame of previous research with the help of a recently published dataset.

恐怖组织的形成:实证分析

摘要

本文研究了恐怖组织形成的决定因素。通过一系列具有时间和国家固定效应的负二项式回归,本文发现人口、国家失败和内战是恐怖组织形成的积极决定因素。人均收入与恐怖组织的孵化呈倒U型关系,而政权类型不是新恐怖组织建立的重要指标。本文以新成立的恐怖组织的年度数量为因变量,并借助最近发布的数据集延长了先前研究的时间范围,从而对现有文献做出了贡献。
