Replications
This section replicates four studies referenced in chapter 7. The first three studies emphasize the
hypothesis that the effect of joint IGO membership (and ideological similarity) is conditional on
a major power being in the dyad.1 In all studies, I also examined the interaction between IGO
membership and contiguity and found that shared IGO membership does not correlate with
conflict in contiguous dyads. However, the presentation focuses on the major power interaction.
The last study examines whether joint IGO membership influences joiners in conflicts. The
appendix also illustrates an alternative operationalization of the distributive thesis: that non-
shared IGO memberships correlate with dispute occurrence.
Democratic Peace and IGOs
Bruce Russett and Jon Pevehouse find that IGOs with more democratic membership reduce
conflict but overall number of shared IGO memberships does not. They argue that this is so
because the various mechanisms highlighted in the socialization and institutionalist literatures
work better when most members are democracies. They rely on a large literature, which shows
that democracies are better able to make credible commitments to international institutions and
more likely to settle disputes through institutions. Moreover, non-democratic states may get
socialized to resolve their disputes peacefully when they interact more with democracies.
The dependent variable is the occurrence of a fatal MID in the 1885-2000 period.
Democratic IGOs are those where the average member has a Polity score of 7 or higher. Column
1 replicates the base model from table 2. Joint IGO membership does not correlate with the
1 I use the COW definition of major power status.

initiation of a dispute but joint membership in democratic IGOs does. Column 2 adds the major
power interactions. We see that shared IGO memberships are significantly correlated with the
presence of disputes in dyads that include a major power. Figure 3 shows the substantive effect:
dyads including at least one major power but with very few shared IGO memberships are
especiallyconflict prone. However, once states have joined about 30 IGOs dyads including a
major power are about as peaceful as dyads without major powers.
Shared democratic IGOs is still significant and negative in column 2. One problem is that
this variable has an extremely skewed distribution: its mean is .7 but its maximum is 59 (with a
standard deviation of 3). Typically we take logarithmic transformations of such variables as
coefficients could be heavily influenced by those few dyads with very high shared democratic
IGO memberships. I do this for both shared democratic and all IGO memberships in columns 3-
5. The correlation for democratic IGOs does not survive such a transformation for the full period
but it does once we limit the analysis to the post 1945 period (column 5). It is only in this period
that IGOs systematically represent an attempt to create a liberal world order. So it could be that
shared democratic IGO membership captures the polarizing aspects of the liberal world order
and not just the pacifying effects of sharing many IGO memberships with democratic states. The
interaction between all IGO memberships and having a major power in the dyad is consistently
significant and negative.

Column 5 also adds the distance between two states ideal points from UN voting. As
predicted by the distributive theory, this correlation is only significant and positive for dyads that
include a major power. A separate analysis confirms that among contiguous states, a dissimilar
ideology does not significantly increase the probability of militarized conflict. Indeed, the

correlation has the opposite sign, suggesting that more ideologically similar contiguous dyads are
more likely to experience conflict. This could potentially be because more dissimilar states are
more likely to attract intervention. Or: more generally, because the dyadic analysis imperfectly
models multilateral MIDs where ideologically dissimilar non-contiguous states (including no
major power) are likely to find themselves on opposite sides of a disputes when none of the other
covariates point to a high likelihood of dispute). All of this remains speculative.

strom argue that only some IGOs are likely to reduce militarized conflict.2 First, only
IGOs with institutionalist mechanisms for mediation, arbitration, and other means to coerce state
decisions are able to help states credibly reveal private information in crises. They distinguish
these interventionist organizations from structured and minimalist organizations, which do not
affect conflict. Interventionist organizations with security mandates are even more likely to be
effective. Second, IGOs are more effective as they are more homogenous in their membership as
these are better at maintaining the secrecy required for effective private information
transmission. IGO heterogeneity is measured using dyadic similarity in UN voting records. A
regression analysis on MIDs from 1950-1991 supports these hypotheses.
By contrast, the distributive perspective posits that the effect of IGO membership should
hold for all IGOs but only in dyads that contain a major power. The effects may well be more
pronounced in interventionist IGOs, as these are better at peacefully resolving disputes among its
members and are more likely used for collective coercive actions against non-members.
Table 2 replicates table two from the original study3 and adds an interaction between
major power in the dyad and shared IGOs. The results are consistent with the distributive theory.
Shared IGO memberships only reduce conflicts in dyads that contains at least one major power.
Moreover, the heterogeneity of IGO membership no longer correlates with conflict in the
regressions that include the interaction.
2 Boehmer, Gartzke, and Nordstrom 2004. 3 The analyses are based on the original data and variables and have the same number of observations.
The coefficients are very close to the original but I could not get an exact match. Most notably, the coefficient on interventionist IGOs just misses the 5% significance mark in my re-analysis.

Network Analysis and IGOs
Emilie Hafner-Burton and Alex Montgomery examine how the way states are integrated
into the network of IGOs affects their propensity to engage in conflict.4 They build on insights
from social network theory to introduce three variables. First, the network of IGOs may consist
of different clusters. Membership in the same cluster may make conflict less likely. Second,
states that are in larger clusters may be more prone to conflict. Third, high disparities in network

prestige may affect conflict propensity, although the theory is unclear about the direction of this
effect. Columns (1) and (3) reproduce their main results: whereas shared IGO memberships are
not correlated with dispute initiation, two of the three network variables are.
Columns (2) and (4) introduce the major power interactions. As before, shared IGO
memberships are negatively correlated with dispute initiation only in dyads that include at least
one major power. The same holds for the cluster effect. The other two network variables do not
exhibit a significant correlation with conflict initiation.

Joining Militarized Disputes
Finally, I test the idea that the incentives for states to join disputes are linked to ideology
and institutionalized membership. I am not aware of a pre-existing study that develops this link. I
therefore start with a recent study that develops a baseline model that properly accounts for
geographic proximity to a conflict.5 The model starts with existing MIDs and pairs these with
potential joiner states (all states in the international system). The key hypothesis is that states that
are poorly integrated into IGOs (measured by their eigenvalue centrality) are more likely to
invite major power joiners than states that are well integrated. By contrast, if the target of a MID
is well integrated into the world’s IGOs, then major power joiners should be more likely.
Together, these hypotheses suggest that integration into the world’s IGOs reflects a state’s
willingness to institutionalize the status quo. Thus, initiating an MID is likely to be perceived by
major powers as a threat or attack on the status quo. However, an initiator that is poorly

integrated is more likely to be seen as threatening the status quo, especially if it attacks a well-
integrated state.

Figure 3: Eigen Value Centrality and MID Onset
Table 3 confirms these insights. The first column gives the baseline model. In the second
column, the eigen value centrality of target and initiator state are added and interacted with the
major power status of potential joiners. I also added terms for whether the initiator and target are
major powers. Figure 5 shows the substantive effect: a major power intervention is much more
likely for initiator states with low centrality in the network of IGOs than for states with high
centrality. The opposite holds for target states.
The third column of table three shows that initiator states with very distinct global
ideologies from the potential joiner state are more likely to see a major power (but not other
states) join. There is no effect for ideology on the target states.

Non-Shared IGOs
Table 4, below, replaces the number of shared IGO membership with the proportions of shared
and non-shared memberships out of all IGOs. The latter are instances where one state belongs to
an IGO but the other does not. The reference category is the proportion of IGOs neither state is a
member of. Proportions test the distributive rationale more directly. What matters is not
necessarily the number of ties but how memberships are distributed over the universe of IGOs.
For simplicity, I only interact IGO variables with major power status and not also with
contiguity. The expectation of the distributive theory is that a large share of non-shared IGO
memberships with a major power would be associated with a larger propensity for conflict.

The results are consistent with this expectation. The correlation between the proportion of shared
IGOs and militarized conflict is inconsistent across model specifications. Yet, the proportion of
non-shared IGOs is consistently positively correlated with militarized conflict among dyads that
include at least one major power. The same finding holds if we examine only interventionist
IGOs. Moreover, it is robust to excluding the overall number of IGOs in the system from the
equation (which is the denominator). The figure below illustrates the substantive effects for both
non-shared IGOs (mean.22, SD .13) and interventionist IGOs (mean .34, SD .18). The proportion
of non-shared IGOs does not noticeably correlate with the likelihood of conflict in dyads that do
not include a major power but it is strongly correlated with increased conflict in dyads that do
include a major power. Even while including non-shared memberships, IGO ideal point distance
is also still positively correlated with increased conflict.

Chapter 9
Appendix 9-A: Backlash Episodes
Zimbabwe vs the South African Development Community
2011. In 2007, white Zimbabwean farmers brought a case to the SADC Tribunal regarding the Zimbabwean government’s land redistribution program. The Tribunal ruled in favor of the farmers because the program targeted white farmers specifically. President Mugabe denounced the judgment, calling it “nonsense” (Nathan, 2013) (Alter, Gathii, & Helfer, 2016). The court ruled against the government again in 2009 for not complying (Alter et al., 2016). The Mugabe administration refused to appear before the Tribunal anymore and to be bound by its rulings. Mugabe refused to appoint judges to the Tribunal. In 2011, the SADC announced a moratorium on new cases pending review of the Tribunal Protocol, rendering the court ineffective. Other amendments to the treaty have allowed withdrawals and severely limited the court’s functioning (Cowell, 2013) (de Wet, 2013).
Trinidad and Tobago exit IACtHR ;
11 Caribbean states leave the Privy Council
May 1998. In 1994, the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council heard a case on the use of the death penalty in the Caribbean (Soley & Steininger, 2018). Shortly afterwards, the IACtHR made decisions limiting the possible applications of the death penalty (Soley & Steininger, 2018). This was the reason cited when Trinidad and Tobago denounced the American Convention effective May 1999. Some have argued that this was significant in weakening the authority of the court and human rights issues in the region (Concepcion, 2000). After this case, in 2001, eleven Caribbean countries decided to replace the British Privy Council with a new Caribbean Court of Justice (Helfer, 2002).
Venezuela exits IACtHR 2008 – exit in 2012. Chavez regime threatens and follows through on withdrawal from the IACtHR. Denunciation of the American Convention effective September 2013. Chavez described the court as antithetical to the Bolivarian revolution. (Soley & Steininger, 2018) (Ginsburg, 2013) Chavez has also called the court a US puppet amidst this threats to withdraw (Couso, Huneeus, & Sieder, 2010).

Peru exits IACtHR (and later returns)
July 1999. Threaten to withdraw by President Fujimori and Congress (Ginsburg, 2013). Fujimori argued that the court violated Peru’s sovereignty (Faiola, 1999). Soley & Steininger do not call it true backlash because it was short-lived and driven by the executive (Soley & Steininger, 2018). Resistance to the court was largely driven by domestic politics rather than a specific issue (Soley & Steininger, 2018). Peru returned to the jurisdiction of the court after a brief withdrawal.
Dominican Republic conflict with IACtHR
November 2014. A 2014 ruling regarding the status of Haitians in the DR triggered discontent among the public, related to anti-immigrant attitudes. High-ranking officials began to criticize the court for interfering in the granting of citizenship. The minister of foreign affairs threatened to denounce it, but so far has not taken this action (Soley & Steininger, 2018).
Bolivia (Evo Morales) opposes IACtHR
June 2012. President Morales suggested reforming or eliminating the IACtHR (Ginsburg, 2013). Morales has also suggested, along with Chavez, creating or expanding an alternate human rights tribunal in the region (Couso et al., 2010).
Rwanda withdraws from ACtHPR
The controversial judgment occurred in 2017, finding that Rwanda violated the right to free speech for restricting the rights of a political figure associated with the promotion of genocide and terrorism. This elicited explicit resistance from the Rwandan government. The government announced its decision to withdraw in March 2016, claiming that the court was dominated by those associated with the genocide in 1994. Daly & Wiebusch find that this is a case of backlash, because of the implied overall lack of legitimacy of the court and the opening of an opportunity for others to follow suit (Daly & Wiebusch, 2018).
US opposes renewal of WTO AB appointments
The US had opposed judges in 2011 and 2016 but those were individual cases with specific rationales. The Trump Administration has started blocking any reappointments, which potentially ends the AB system altogether in 2019 (Shaffer, Elsig, & Pollack, 2017).
Kenya pushes for reform of East African Court of Justice
2006. The Court rejected Kenya’s proposed candidates for the East African Legislative Assembly. The Kenyan government viewed this as a violation of sovereignty and taking sides with their political opponents. The government tried several methods of

backlash, mostly notably threatening to remove the court’s two Kenyan judges. These attempts were blocked, but instead the EAC Treaty was amended (outside of the accepted institutional processes) to change the structure and function of the court (Alter et al., 2016; Caserta & Cebulak, 2018a).
UK promotes Brighton Declaration and threatens to withdraw from ECtHR
In 2014, the UK administration planned to exit the ECHR unless they were given the right to veto any decisions made in the court, citing a lack of national sovereignty and the expanding role of the court into new issue areas (Watt & Bowcott, 2014). They hoped to see the court become an advisory body without any binding authority (UK Conservative Party, 2014). Britain has been a critic of the court since around 2012, after the Court overruled domestic decisions on polarized issues. The Brighton Declaration, adopted in 2012, seeks to limit the court’s authority over national courts and narrow the criteria for selecting cases (“Down to the wire: Human rights and Europe,” 2012; Madsen, 2016). Pulling out of ECtHR is also a part of Theresa May’s 2020 campaign (Hope, 2016).
Russia restricts authority of ECtHR
After the 2004 reforms in Protocol No. 11 to reduce the court’s backlog of cases and continuing investigation into human rights in the country, Russia began to oppose the court and has threatened to withdraw several times. (Hillebrecht, 2014; Madsen, 2016).
In 2015, Russia’s Constitutional Court, backed by the legislature, redefined the country’s relationship with the ECtHR, reinforcing previous patterns of noncompliance with and nonenforcement of ECtHR rulings (Mälksoo, 2016). The Constitutional Court ruling limits the ability of the ECtHR to rule in certain areas where the ECtHR rulings conflict with the Russian constitution (Mälksoo, 2016). This limits the authority of the court over the Russian state.
Venezuela exits the Andean Community/ATJ
In 2006, Chavez decided to withdraw from the Andean Community, favoring instead alternatives less exposed to US interests (Alter & Helfer, 2017). The withdrawal was catalyzed by Peru and Colombia’s free trade agreements with the United States (Alter & Helfer, 2017). This meant that the AC came to a standstill because of the conflicting politics of the remaining

members (Alter & Helfer, 2017; Caserta & Cebulak, 2018a).
Ecuador threatens to leave AC/ATJ, but does not follow through
The court’s first cases focused on reforms by Ecuador’s president Correa since 2007. After the court ruled against Correa, Ecuador threatened to leave, but the rest of its pushback has remained within the rules of the system (Caserta & Cebulak, 2018a). Meanwhile, Ecuador has failed to comply with free trade rules, and was expected to leave the agreement facing cases challenging its policies, but did not and has pursued legal approaches instead (Alter & Helfer, 2017).
Central American countries oppose the CACJ
In 2005, the court ruled on a dispute involving the separation of powers of the Nicaraguan presidency, overruling the Nicaraguan Supreme Court. Since then, several Central American countries have moved away from the court and tried to limit its resources and jurisdictions (Caserta, 2017; Caserta & Cebulak, 2018b).
In 2015, Costa Rica withdrew from the Central
American Integration System (SICA), which includes the CACJ, because the institution was unable to work with Costa Rica’s decisions regarding an influx of Cuban migrants (“Analysts call Costa Rica’s withdrawal from SICA ‘deadly blow’ for organization,” 2015). Belize, Guatemala, and Nicaragua would not cooperate in the solution that Costa Rica advocated, and this withdrawal significantly hindered the organization’s functioning in the region (“Costa Rica’s leaving SICA said complicating situation in region,” 2015). The country rejoined about six months later (“Costa Rica politics,” 2016).
Meanwhile, since it ratified the treaty in 2008,
Guatemala has refused to appoint judges to the court, hindering its participation (Caserta, 2017).
Venezuela withdraws from ICSID, threatens to terminate BITs, and exits BIT with the Netherlands
2012. Venezuela withdraws from ICSID after Chavez announces intent to leave imperialist international organizations (de Córdoba, 2011; Ginsburg, 2013; Kaushal, 2009; Langford & Behn, 2016). The government has spread false press releases regarding the unfairness of the court (Ginsburg, 2013). For more on the court’s legal reaction to the denunciation see (Bastin & Lee, 2015). The denunciation did not have a large effect on existing disputes, since those that were pending are proceeding (de Córdoba, 2011; Peinhardt & Wellhausen,

2016). Venezuela also began to discuss withdrawal from other BITs, and in 2008 terminated an important BIT with the Netherlands (Kaushal, 2009; Peinhardt & Wellhausen, 2016).
The Gambia challenges the Court of the Economic Community of West African States
2009. Two of the first suits in the court were against Gambia. The government ignored them and acted against the rulings. In response, the Gambia proposed amendments to weaken the court. The other West African governments rejected Gambia’s challenge, making this what Alter and coauthors call a “failed backlash.” (Alter et al., 2016)
Bolivia denounces ICSID and renegotiates BITs
Bolivia denounced ICSID Convention in May 2007 after many cases being filed against it (Ginsburg, 2013; Langford & Behn, 2016). Morales blamed the ICSID for favoring MNCs over the governments of Latin America (Wick, 2011). Although some were worried that this move would destabilize the ICSID, it has not appeared to have that effect yet (Waibel, Kaushal, Chung, & Balchin, 2010). Bolivia then began to renegotiate all of its BITs after 2009 (Peinhardt & Wellhausen, 2016; Waibel et al., 2010). Bolivia has withdrawn from two BITs (United States and Italy) and threatened to renegotiate or withdraw from 22 more (“ICSID backlash will see limited impact,” 2014; Kaushal, 2009).
Ecuador withdraws from ICSID and renegotiates BITs
2009-2010. Ecuador denounced ICSID (Ginsburg, 2013; Hutchinson, 2013). In 2008, under President Correa, Ecuador adopted a new constitution that forbade entering in the future into forums of international arbitration, except where these institutions contain only Latin American parties (Wick, 2011). At the same time, Ecuador terminated 26 BITs (Ahmed, 2017; Kaushal, 2009; Langford & Behn, 2016; Peinhardt & Wellhausen, 2016), including the US-Ecuador BIT (Federal Information & News Dispatch, Inc., 2018a). The rest are in the process of being terminated (“ICSID backlash will see limited impact,” 2014).
Kenya opposes ICC Kenya has begun to oppose the ICC after the investigations into the violence emerging after its 2007-2008 presidential election. The government attacked the court until the charges brought against President Kenyatta and Deputy President Ruto in 2012 were dropped in 2014 and 2016, respectively (Helfer & Showalter, 2017). The government rallied domestic and international support, delayed court proceedings, and

silencing witnesses, as well as attacking the ICC as part of a campaign strategy in 2013 (Mueller, 2014). They also lobbied the UNSC for a deferral or termination of the prosecutions, and made motions to withdraw from the ICC both in 2010 and after the election in 2013 (Helfer & Showalter, 2017). Kenya also encouraged other African countries to withdraw, with Ethiopia, Ghana, Malawi, Sudan, Uganda, and Zimbabwe agreeing and Ivory Coast, Gambia, Mali, and Botswana opposing (Helfer & Showalter, 2017).
(“It’s show time: Kenya and the international court,” 2013)
South Africa withdraws from BITs seen as hindering the national agenda
In 2012, South Africa began to withdraw from BITs with Belgium, Luxembourg, Spain, Germany, Switzerland, and the Netherlands, arguing that these arrangements were hindering the national agenda (Green, 2012; Peinhardt & Wellhausen, 2016). However, the country may turn toward renegotiation instead of continuing to withdraw from these agreements (Peinhardt & Wellhausen, 2016).
Indonesia plans to withdraw from or renegotiate all BITs
In 2016, two years after announcing a plan to terminate or renegotiate all BITs, Indonesia had withdrawn from 9, with plans to withdraw from 11 more by 2018 (Peinhardt & Wellhausen, 2016). Bland and Donnan argue that this decision fits into a broader global backlash against ISDS in investment treaties (Bland & Donnan, 2014).
South Africa plans to leave ICC
In 2016, South Africa announced plans to withdraw from the International Criminal Court, following in the footsteps of Burundi (Chan & Simons, 2016). South Africa has been opposing the court since it accused the country of noncompliance in 2015, and also supports the idea that the court is an institution of colonialism over Africans (Chan & Simons, 2016). However, there is doubt as to whether South Africa will actually withdraw, given its record of supporting the ICC under President Mandela and the potential damage to the country’s reputation (Corder, 2016; “The battle against impunity goes on,” 2015).
Burundi plans to leave ICC In October 2016, Burundi became the first country to announce its intent to withdraw from the ICC after the court announced intentions to investigate political violence in the country (Chan & Simons, 2016; Sengupta, 2016).

Gambia plans to leave ICC In October 2016, Gambia announced plans to pull out of the ICC, calling it the “International Caucasian Court” and referencing the ICC’s apparent focus on convicting Africans (Corder, 2016; Sengupta, 2016). These concerns are similar to South Africa’s and Burundi’s.
Philippines plans to leave ICC
In November 2016, President Duterte of the Philippines announced his plans to withdraw from the ICC facing criticism for his policies of killing suspected drug dealers (Rauhala, 2016). In March 2018, he issued a statement withdrawing ratification of the Rome Statue (Federal Information & News Dispatch, Inc., 2018b).
India terminates/lets expire 58 BITs
In April 2017, India allowed as many as 58 of its BITs to expire or be terminated, insisting that they be renegotiated with a new draft model BIT that would require arbitration to occur in domestic Indian courts (Sen, 2017). The US has been engaging in talks with India in 2017 over a BIT, but they have not come to an agreement yet (Basu, 2017). This decision is a response to several cases brought against the country (Ahmed, 2017).
Poland announces plan to terminate BITs
In March 2016, Poland announced that it planned to terminate all BITs, following several cases against it (“Poland Wants to Terminate Bilateral Investment Treaties,” 2016). However, it has quickly reversed some of these statements, and it is not clear whether they intend to take any resulting action (Mondaq Business Briefing, 2016).
Ecuador attempts to curtail the Inter-American Commission and replace the IACtHR
In 2012, Correa wanted to remove the IACH jurisdiction on free speech cases (among others) asserting undue US influence. Was supported by Bolivia and Venezuela.
In 2016, President Correa criticized the IACHR and suggested replacing this institution with another human rights body, citing the colonialist influence of the US on the existing institution (“Correa calls for new Inter-American Human Rights System,” 2016) See also 2012 effort.
