Folks,
Just read a paper with some interesting perspectives on causes of
conflicts in societies.
1. low levels of wealth make it difficult for societies to construct
political institutions that are robust enough to avoid violent conflicts
2. low levels of wealth foment perceptions of injustice,thereby
increasing the likelihood of rebellion.
3. the distribution of wealth affects patterns of civil conflict by
shaping the incentives of social groups to engage in rebellion
I wonder how true / applicable they are to Gambia/Africa? Could basic
understanding of these help avoid/minimize conflicts?
