Hypotheses
- "As the incidence of annual hunger increases, the greater the likelihood of annual rituals of conflict" (859).Dirks, Robert - Annual rituals of conflict, 1988 - 2 Variables
This article explores the factors that predict rituals of conflict. Hypotheses are derived from Gluckman's analysis of Southeast African rituals of rebellion and are tested against a cross-cultural sample.

"This article provides a set of codes that rate the starvation and famine experiences of societies in the Standard Cross-Cultural Sample. The codes are used to test several theoretical generalizations regarding the underlying causes of famine." Results indicate that seasonal starvation and direct entitlements are the strongest predictors of famine.
