Research about the relationship Intrastate Armed Conflicts (IACs)-government decentralization faces competing views, contradictory findings, over reliance on case studies, and methodological shortcomings in comparative analysis. Therefore, this dissertation revisits such a relationship from a multidisciplinary and integrative framework, and specifically explores the role of IACs as drivers of decentralization reforms by asking: Do IACs affect countries' levels of government decentralization, after controlling for other factors?I address this research question through a threefold analysis. First, I compare decentralization levels between countries with occurrences of IACs and those countries without IACs. Second, I test whether there is a relationship between the IACs' type of incompatibility and countries' levels of government decentralization. And third, I track and test changes in countries' levels of government decentralization after the onset of IACs, after IACs are active, and after the end of IACs. To do so, I conducted a series of Longitudinal and Panel Data (L&PD) analyses, specifically using Generalized Estimating Equations (GEE) to model the relationship between the occurrence of IACs and government decentralization in 51 countries during the period 1950-2010. The data used come from two main sources: the Armed Conflict Dataset version 18.1 by the Uppsala Conflict Data Program and the Peace Research Institute at Oslo (Patterson & Eck, 2018), and the Regional Authority Index by Hooghe et al. (2016). These L&PD analyses demonstrate that, first; countries with occurrences of IACs do have lower levels of government decentralization than countries without IAC. Second, countries with IACs over government, instead of those with IACs over territory, have the lowest levels of government decentralization. Third, whereas countries tend to maintain or reduce their levels of government decentralization after the onset of IACs and after IACs are active, they tend to increase their levels of government decentralization after the end of IACs. However, such differences among countries and changes in their levels of government decentralization also vary across the political, administrative, fiscal, and constitutional dimensions of government decentralization. Overall, these results show that centralization-decentralization reforms are part of countries' strategies to both cope with IACs as well as to maintain peace.

520 $a La investigacion sobre la relacion entre los Conflictos Armados Intraestatales (CAI) y la Descentralizacion Gubernamental padece de visiones opuestas, hallazgos contradictorios, dependencia excesiva de estudios de casos y deficiencias metodologicas en el analisis comparativo. Por ello, esta disertacion revisa nuevamente dicha relacion desde un marco multidisciplinario e integrador, y explora especificamente el papel de los CAI como impulsores de las reformas descentralizadoras al preguntarse: ¿Los CAI afectan los niveles de descentralizacion gubernamental de los paises, despues de controlar otros factores?Abordo esta pregunta de investigacion a traves de un analisis triple. Primero, comparo los niveles de descentralizacion gubernamental entre paises con ocurrencias de CAI y paises sin CAI. En segundo lugar, pruebo si existe una relacion entre el tipo de incompatibilidad de los CAI y los niveles de descentralizacion gubernamental de los paises. Y tercero, hago seguimiento y pruebo si hay cambios en los niveles de descentralizacion gubernamental de los paises despues del inicio de sus CAI, despues de que estos han estado activos y despues de su final.Para hacerlo, realice una serie de analisis de Datos Longitudinales y de Panel (L&PD, por sus iniciales en ingles), especificamente utilizando Ecuaciones de Estimacion Generalizadas (GEE, por sus iniciales en ingles) para modelar la relacion entre la ocurrencia de CAI y la descentralizacion gubernamental en 51 paises durante el periodo 1950-2010. Los datos utilizados provienen principalmente de dos fuentes: la version 18.1 de la Base de Datos de Conflictos Armados elaborada por el Uppsala Conflict Data Program y el Peace Research Institute de Oslo (Patterson & Eck, 2018), y el Indice de Autoridad Regional desarrollado por Hooghe et al. (2016).Estos analisis de L&PD demuestran que, primero; los paises con casos de CAI tienen niveles mas bajos de descentralizacion gubernamental que los paises sin CAI. Segundo, los paises con CAI de incompatibilidad sobre el gobierno, en lugar de aquellos con CAI sobre el territorio, tienen los niveles mas bajos de descentralizacion gubernamental. En tercer lugar, mientras que los paises tienden a mantener o reducir sus niveles de descentralizacion gubernamental despues del inicio de los CAI y despues de que estos han estado activos, estos tienden a aumentar sus niveles de descentralizacion gubernamental despues del final sus CAI. Sin embargo, tales diferencias entre paises y cambios en sus niveles tambien varian entre las dimensiones politica, administrativa, fiscal y constitucional de la descentralizacion gubernamental. En general, estos resultados muestran que las reformas de centralizacion-descentralizacion son parte de las estrategias de los paises tanto para hacer frente a los CAI como para mantener la paz.
