Ember, Carol R.When included in a model testing the relationship between several variables and frequency of internal warfare, food production will be a significant predictor of internal warfare frequency (12).
Russett, BruceThe frequency of warfare will be negatively associated with consultation, checks on power, removal of leaders, extent of political participation, and absence of fission and positively associated with population (108).
Ember, Carol R. There will be a replication of the Ember et al. (1992) internal warfare worldwide findings in eastern African societies.
Ember, Carol R. There will be an inverse relationship between political participation and committing atrocities.
Ember, Carol R. Adding three additional variables-little formalized leadership, natural disasters, and state-level organization- to the eastern African comparison would lead to a replication of the Ember et al. (1992) findings.
