Abstract

The following article aims to investigate to what extent the existence of national wars in African states, from the end of World War II until 2015, was conditioned by levels of government entrenchment and levels of statehood. Based on the design and application of five logistic regression models, the study essentially shows that higher levels of government entrenchment are associated with a lower probability of internal wars in African states, and higher levels of statehood are associated with a lower probability of national wars in African states.
