Explanation:

Neighbours can be a boon or a bane. Cooperative neighbours strengthen and assist each other. Non-cooperative neighbours can drain and impose burdens on each other. In the interests of long-term, sustainable peace, it is important for countries to pre-plan for the likelihood of a neighbour requiring assistance, and to help prevent conflict by committing resources to such assistance.

Of the hundreds of academic research pieces on violence-afflicted states, relatively few explicitly consider the role of neighbours. An important exception was a 2002 paper by James C. Murdoch and Todd Sandler, published in 2002, which studied the spillover effects of civil war-afflicted countries on their neighbours and found substantial adverse income-growth effects, especially for near-neighbours.

Still, most studies and policy recommendations and actions remain focused on the afflicted state itself and far less on the region within which it is located. Examples abound. The set of wars in Central America in the 1980s left even peaceful Costa Rica in economic tatters. Its economy began to recover only once the regional peace agreements were struck after a decade of war. Negotiating the peace had been in Costa Rica’s own best interests.
