תקציר	Spatial conflict analysis models armed conflict while taking geography seriously: conflict is not randomly scattered but clusters in space, and a place's risk depends on its neighbors. Building on georeferenced data and spatial-statistical methods — as in Ward and Gleditsch's (2002) MCMC approach to the spatial context of war and peace — it uses spatial weights, tests for spatial autocorrelation, and fits spatial regression models so that conflict, peace, and their predictors are analyzed as interdependent across locations rather than as isolated observations.	UCDP conflict data analysis is the coding and quantitative study of organized violence using the datasets of the Uppsala Conflict Data Program. UCDP distinguishes three categories of organized violence — state-based armed conflict, non-state conflict, and one-sided violence against civilians — and codes them from the level of individual fatal events up to annual conflict dyads. The Georeferenced Event Dataset (UCDP-GED), introduced by Sundberg and Melander (2013), pins each event to a place and date, enabling fine-grained spatial and temporal analysis of where and when violence occurs.
