When armed groups strike the balance between coercion and consent in their interactions with civilians, how can civilians assert their interests within this insurgent-civilian dynamic? This thesis argues that variations in prewar civilian social arrangements and political orders can influence the outcomes of insurgent mobilization by providing civilians with leverage over insurgent organizations. When insurgents seek to embed within a civilian community, they inevitably engage with pre-existing institutions and social norms to manage the insurgent-civilian relationship. This process can empower civilians to affect the scope and duration of rebel activities. I argue that when prewar social norms and political orders are more hierarchically arranged, this lowers the transaction costs of insurgent mobilization. By forming strategic alliances with local elites who control concentrated power and resources, insurgent organizations can achieve rapid growth in organizational capacity. However, these alliances also make insurgents vulnerable to elite capture, wherein powerbrokers use their leverage over armed groups to pursue private interests, potentially prolonging mobilization. Conversely, when prewar social norms and political orders are more egalitarian, insurgents face higher transaction costs of mobilization due to the time and effort required to access and accumulate power and resources dispersed within the civilian community. This diffusion can dampen insurgent capacity, potentially limiting the scope and duration of their mobilization. Using a mixed-methods approach, my quantitative analysis demonstrates that the ordering of pre-war social and political arrangements affects conflict duration, mobilization duration, likelihood of conflict recurrence, and the scope of insurgent objectives. Primary data from the Cordillera and Mindanao regions of the Philippines provide qualitative insights into the mechanisms by which these prewar social processes can influence the trajectory of insurgent mobilization. This research contributes to the social-institutionalist literature on insurgent mobilization by focusing on the civilian side of the insurgent-civilian relationship.
