Using a case study of a growth period in the Norwegian petroleum industry, we show that this

We examine the empirical relationship between the occurrence of inter-state conflicts and the\ud degree of relatedness between countries, measured by genetic distance. We find that populations\ud that are genetically closer are more prone to go to war with each other, even after controlling\ud for numerous measures of geographic distance and other ...
