Abstract:

The Conflict and Mediation Event Observations (CAMEO) framework is a relatively new event data-coding scheme optimized for the study of third party mediation in global disputes. In an earlier paper (Gerner et al. 2002) we discussed the development of the event-coding component of that framework; in this paper we discuss the actor-coding framework. Because almost all contemporary conflicts transcend the traditional focus on state actors, featuring instead significant involvement of both sub-state and non-state actors, the state-centered coding schemes used in older data sets such as WEIS and COPDAB have proven inadequate for coding current events. In their place, we have established a systematic method of hierarchically creating codes that allow for the identification of states, sub-state actors, ethnic groups, geographical regions, IGOs and NGOs. This system, while still under development, has proven sufficient to code a wide range of relevant actors involved in inter- and intra-state protracted conflicts in African, the Balkans, Central Asia and the Middle East.
