Abstract:

The extant literature examining third party interventions large-n studies generally focus on ?intervener-centric? analyses. The emphasis is thus on types of intervener, such as the United Nations, NATO or the United States in attempting to comprehend the overall phenomenon of third party interventions or various hypothesis related to this topic. However, as numerous case studies on specific conflict resolution endeavours in international crisis have shown, multiple third parties tend to intervene in the same crisis. In a sense, their seems to be a bandwagoning effect in intervention events, where certain crises tend to get a lot of attention from the international community and having multiple actors investing capital human, reputational and financial resources. This bandwagoning effect in conflict resolution enterprises could be explained by the interrelation of the actors, where certain key states are members of multiple organizations and encourages these organizations to intervene in specific crisis. On the other hand, certain crises do not even attract one intervener in response to gross human suffering. Using the newly released International Crisis Behavior (ICB) dataset on international crisis cases, this paper examines the factors associated with intervention bandwagoning in the hope to better grasp the multifunctional complexity of third party interventions. In this context, it is not clear if the bandwagoning effect is associated with variables specific to the various interveners, such has their interrelation or, on the contrary, to factors correlated with the crisis itself such has geostrategic salience, crisis severity, economic importance, etc.Regan, Patrick M. 1999.
