This has been one of my favourite professional trips ever. I learned so much about Cyprus, a wonderful country with an impressive academic system. Thanks to Antonis Ellinas for the kind invitation!
Burkina Faso's military dictator Ibrahim Traóre as super hero "Capitain Africa" with a label "FAKE"
What is behind idolisation of a military dictator of Burkina Faso, Ibrahim Tráore, and promotion of his alleged achievements?
Is he really a contemporary anti-imperialist hero?
Who organises the campaign and benefits from it?

Ex-rebels govern almost a quarter of sub-Saharan Africa today. How does war affect these countries' long-run political development, and what explains their rebel regimes' longevity? The paper explores the role of coercion in rebel governance: post-war governance draws from wartime strategies, which helps to explain (1) the continued use of organized coercion in post-war politics when faced with challenges to ruling party dominance, and (2) where such coercion is most effectively employed. I examine Zimbabwe where the anti-colonial rebel party has remained in power since 1980. I rely on archival data to qualitatively trace mechanisms, map pre-war to current-day administrative divisions, and code a measure of wartime governance. I combine these data with Afrobarometer surveys to demonstrate long-run subnational variation in coercive political control. Findings deepen our understanding of war’s effects on peacetime politics and provide one explanation for infrequent political turnovers
🥳🚨 Excited to share my paper, "Coercive Legacies: From Rebel Governance to Authoritarian Control," cond. accepted at @thejop.bsky.social (paper: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....)
I ask:❓How does rebel governance affect political development when rebel parties win power? #polisky 🧵 1/4

Hi Bluesky 😀. I am an IR-researcher studying state formation and decay & theory and practice of international state-building. My current project RebeLeg studies the long-term effect of civil wars and rebels on post-conflict state formation trajectories in Namibia, Zimbabwe, Eritrea and Somaliland.
