Sisällön kuvaus

This database on the measures of ethnic heterogeneity and ethnic conflicts in 176 contemporary countries is connected with Tatu Vanhanen's long-term research project on the causal relationship between ethnic nepotism and the extent of ethnic conflict and violence in the world. The measures are: Ethnic Heterogeneity (EH) that measures to some extent the significance and potential intensity of ethnic nepotism; Scale of Institutionalized Ethnic Interest Conflict (IC) that is used to measure the estimated significance of principally nonviolent ethnic conflicts; and Scale of Ethnic Violence (EV) that is intended to measure the relative significance of violent ethnic confict in a country. The estimated scores are based on incidents during the period 2003-2010, and the database also contains brief references to the nature of conflicts. See background information for detailed information of the measures and used sources.
