Collaborating across Borders: Challenges and Choices in Joint Survey Research between Local and Foreign Scholars

Joint projects between academics based in different parts of the world are on the rise. 1 Two trends have facilitated this development: an increase in the number of non-US citizens who receive their doctoral degrees from American universities in the past 20 years (National Science Foundation 2018) and the emergence of the Internet as a new tool of communication. As a result, American and non-American scholars have more opportunities to foster academic relationships, which then lead to joint research projects. The prevalence of these joint projects is not without challenges. This article analyzes some of these challenges and highlights the key choices that affect such collaborative efforts from the perspective of a local scholar based outside of the United States. 2 The specific challenges in joint projects depend on the type of research. This article focuses on survey research that is conducted in the local scholar's country together with foreign scholars. In particular, I draw on two surveys that my coauthors and I conducted among Turkish citizens (Getmansky, Sinmazdemir, and Zeitzoff 2018) and

“…These attacks have included roadblocks in the West Bank, the destruction of Palestinian olive groves, defacement of Palestinian houses, Arab churches, and mosques, and sometimes murder (Graham, ). Scholars suggest that the goals of the attacks are threefold: (1) imposing a cost on the Israeli government when they seek to challenge the settlement enterprise; (2) radicalizing the Palestinian population and inciting attacks against Jewish settlers; and (3) forcing Jews who do not support the settler movement to pick a side—either supporting the Palestinians and opposing the settlers, or (tacitly) endorsing the Jewish settlers (Eiran & Krause, ). Ordinary citizens could play various roles in trying to prevent such escalation, by intervening to block the attacks, working to temper Palestinian or Jewish reactions to such attacks, or in supporting leaders who aim to stem the attacks’ potential to cause escalation.…”

How might interventions that engage ordinary citizens in settings of violent conflict affect broader conflict dynamics? Given the volume of resources committed every year to citizen‐oriented programs that attempt to promote peace, this is an important question. We develop a framework to analyze processes through which individual‐level interventions could mitigate violent conflict escalation more broadly. Individual‐level interventions may increase positive feelings toward the outgroup, as well as psychological, social, and material resources among participants. These have the potential to influence behaviors such as policing of the ingroup, public advocacy, and political action that can contribute to peace. Yet, the effectiveness of interventions to influence the conflict is moderated by contextual factors like groups’ access to material resources, their positions in society, and political institutions. We use this analytical framework to assess evidence from recent intervention studies. We find that the current evidence base is quite small, does not cover the diversity of relevant contexts, and gives too little attention to resources and capacities that enable people to engage in conflict mitigation behaviors. Researchers and policy makers should go beyond thinking only about improving attitudes to thinking about behavior, resources, and capacities for such behaviors, and contextual conditions that constrain behavior.

“…Outposts not only attract radical settlers who further contribute to escalation, but are also used as launch pads for the so-called 'price tag' operations that result in Palestinian casualties, damage to property, spark tensions, and may even lead to violence. 57 Thus, by illuminating the connection between violence and the expansion of outposts, this paper contributes to the understanding of cycles of violence in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.…”
