I fill the gap by examining the effect of solar eclipses on political violence. Expanding on psychological theories, I hypothesize that eclipse-induced darkness evokes fear, which in turn is misattributed to outgroups, thereby triggering violence. I contrast this argument with a tactical explanation, suggesting that darkness allows insurgents to secretly kill civilians. I test these hypotheses by exploiting exogenous variations in the dates and locations of solar eclipses for 1997–2022 in Africa. The analysis indicates a spike in violence on the days of solar eclipses. To explore the mechanisms, I examine the initiators and original texts of violent events, weather conditions, ethnic folklore, and individual-level surveys. The analyses support the tactical rather than psychological explanation. These findings warn against assuming that “irrational” or “superstitious” African people overreacted to eclipses; insurgents rationally used darkness for their tactical purposes.","subitem_description_language":"en","subitem_description_type":"Abstract"}]},"item_14_geolocation_18":{"attribute_name":"地域/国名","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_geolocation_place":[{"subitem_geolocation_place_text":"Africa"}]}]},"item_14_identifier_registration":{"attribute_name":"identifier_registration","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_identifier_reg_text":"10.20561/0002001094","subitem_identifier_reg_type":"JaLC"}]},"item_14_publisher_7":{"attribute_name":"出版者","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_publisher":"Institute of Developing Economies (IDE-JETRO)"}]},"item_14_rights_5":{"attribute_name":"item_14_rights_5","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_rights":"Copyrights 2024 by author(s)","subitem_rights_language":"en"}]},"item_14_version_type_15":{"attribute_name":"出版タイプ","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_version_resource":"http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85","subitem_version_type":"VoR"}]},"item_creator":{"attribute_name":"著者","attribute_type":"creator","attribute_value_mlt":[{"creatorAlternatives":[{"creatorAlternative":"菊田, 恭輔"}],"creatorNames":[{"creatorName":"KIKUTA, Kyosuke","creatorNameLang":"en"}]}]},"item_files":{"attribute_name":"ファイル情報","attribute_type":"file","attribute_value_mlt":[{"accessrole":"open_access","date":[{"dateType":"Available","dateValue":"2024-09-05"}],"displaytype":"detail","filename":"IDP000941_001.pdf","filesize":[{"value":"3.3MB"}],"format":"application/pdf","licensetype":"license_note","mimetype":"application/pdf","url":{"label":"Full-text PDF","url":"https://ir.ide.go.jp/record/2001094/files/IDP000941_001.pdf"},"version_id":"6e866b33-0239-4cba-9f05-0f7e924525aa"}]},"item_keyword":{"attribute_name":"キーワード","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_subject":"Eclipse","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"Darkness","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"Violence","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"Conflict","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"Africa","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"Natural experiment","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"Astronomy","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"}]},"item_language":{"attribute_name":"言語","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_language":"eng"}]},"item_resource_type":{"attribute_name":"item_resource_type","attribute_value_mlt":[{"resourcetype":"technical report","resourceuri":"http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_18gh"}]},"item_title":"Eclipse: How Darkness Shapes Violence in Africa","item_titles":{"attribute_name":"タイトル","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_title":"Eclipse: How Darkness Shapes Violence in Africa","subitem_title_language":"en"}]},"item_type_id":"14","owner":"27","path":["1704342972436"],"pubdate":{"attribute_name":"PubDate","attribute_value":"2024-09-05"},"publish_date":"2024-09-05","publish_status":"0","recid":"2001094","relation_version_is_last":true,"title":["Eclipse: How Darkness Shapes Violence in Africa"],"weko_creator_id":"27","weko_shared_id":-1},"updated":"2025-10-29T05:09:58.034150+00:00"}
