Asian Survey Vol.58 No.2, March/April 2018, pp.261-280 (12)Summary: This article shows that the statistical correlation between poverty and violence during the conflict in Nepal (1996-2006) is unlikely to be explained by grievances or low opportunity costs among the poor, but is better explained by considering the rebels' strategy.
