Abstract

AbstractConflict analysis is a key step to be considered by conflict and peace academics, practitioners and policymakers willing to assess the complexities associated with conflict scenarios. With this aim, this essay explores how Geopolitical Risk, particularly the Geopolitical Risk Index, could be used as a supportive tool for multidisciplinary studies in geoeconomics and geopolitics. The case of the war in Ukraine was taken as an example that guided the research framework. The core research findings show that conflict studies could accommodate geopolitical risk as a conflict analysis tool. However, caution is needed regarding the limitations and complexities associated with econometric modeling and how it can be used to integrate behavioral sciences, which are critical aspects of understanding the human dimension attached to decision-making processes, and that emerge as a significant limitation. DISCLOSURE STATEMENTNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 See Conflict Analysis Tools document CSS/ETH Zürich 2005 (Manson and Richard Citation2005) for further and basic reference on classic conflict analysis tools or Social cubism: Six social forces of ethnoterritorial politics In northern ireland and Québec by Seàn Byrne and Neal CarterAdditional informationNotes on contributorsDaniel RajmilDaniel Rajmil is International Relations professor at the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC) School of Law and Political Science.

地缘政治风险在冲突分析中的作用:关键见解
摘要冲突分析是冲突与和平学者、实践者和决策者在评估冲突情景的复杂性时需要考虑的关键步骤。为此,本文探讨了地缘政治风险,特别是地缘政治风险指数如何被用作地缘经济和地缘政治多学科研究的支持工具。以乌克兰战争为例,指导研究框架。核心研究结果表明,冲突研究可以适应地缘政治风险作为冲突分析工具。然而,需要谨慎考虑与计量经济建模相关的局限性和复杂性,以及如何将其用于整合行为科学,这是理解与决策过程相关的人的维度的关键方面,并且是一个重要的限制。披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。注1参见冲突分析工具文档CSS/ETH z rich 2005 (Manson and Richard Citation2005),了解经典冲突分析工具或社会立体主义的进一步基本参考:北爱尔兰和quimac的种族领土政治的六种社会力量,作者:Seàn Byrne和Neal carter。附加信息daniel RajmilDaniel rajmil丹尼尔·拉吉尔是加泰罗尼亚大学(UOC)法律和政治学院的国际关系教授。他的研究方向是国际关系、冲突研究、地缘政治和地缘经济。他是UOC-UNITAR(联合国培训研究所)冲突、和平与安全硕士课程的主任,也是加泰罗尼亚政府认可的地缘政治、冲突和人权研究小组(GEOCONDAH)的首席研究员。E-mail: drajmil@uoc.eduLucía MoralesLucía莫拉莱斯是爱尔兰都柏林科技大学会计、经济和金融学院的学术创新者和活跃研究员。在她的学术生涯之前,Lucía在私营部门工作,担任过不同的职位:财务经理、助理财务经理和外交部风险分析师(银行)。
