Decarbonization and Conflict Resolution: New Patterns of Peacemaking in Political Marketplace Systems and its Implications for the Clean Energy Transition<\/strong><\/p>\n

Authors: Benjamin Spatz, Aditya Sarkar, and Alex de Waal<\/p>\n

This policy brief outlines a new, and nuanced, relationship among conflict, peacemaking, and natural resources (particularly oil) in violent, transactional political systems (i.e., political marketplaces), describing how the availability of discretionary oil rents impacts patterns of peacemaking; there are more comprehensive peace deals when there is more oil revenue, and more limited deals such as ceasefires when that revenue decreases.<\/p>\n

Decarbonization \u2013 replacing fossil fuels with \u201ccleaner\u201d non-hydrocarbon-based forms of energy \u2013 carries a previously unidentified set of risks in certain contexts: \u201cit may be the loss of oil that causes conflict\u201d (Pospisil 2021).<\/p>\n

Transitioning away from fossil fuels would eliminate oil revenue as a ready source of political finance, which risks upsetting the associated elite deals unpinned in precisely the contexts where governments are least well-equipped to manage the transition. This has implications for stability, violence, peacemaking, corruption, development and humanitarian outcomes.<\/p>\n
