唐世平教授在国际政治学科一流杂志Review of International Studies (《国际研究评论》)发表文章：“The Security Dilemma and Ethnic Conflict: toward a dynamic and integrative theory of ethnic conflict(《安全困境和族群冲突：迈向一个动态和整合的族群冲突理论》)”。
文章应用安全困境这一国际政治理论中的核心概念，提出了一个构建一个关于“族群冲突（Ethnic Conflict）”的广义理论的方向。文章批评了既有文献中对安全困境这一概念的误解和滥用。在此基础上，文章勾勒了一个有关“族群冲突”的广义理论的雏形。文章将对预防和控制族群冲突都有现实的理论和政策意义。
目前，唐世平教授正在这一工作的基础上发展出一个关于族群冲突的广义理论“A General Theory of Ethnic Conflict and Cooperation”。该项工作的目标乃是在目前工作的基础上，构建一个能够给与族群冲突的相对充分理解的理论。
文章摘要
I critically examine the existing literature on the security dilemma in ethnic conflict, thus laying part of the foundation for constructing a dynamic and integrative theory of ethnic conflict. I show that many attempts to apply the security dilemma to the understanding of ethnic conflict have been based on an imprecise and often mistaken understanding of the concept. I then emphasize that the security dilemma theory and the broader spiral model constitute a dynamic, versatile and powerful theory of strategic interaction that captures some general dynamics leading to the outbreak of war. As such, the security dilemma theory and the broader spiral model, when properly understood, can serve as part of the foundation of a dynamic and integrative theory of ethnic conflict, and such a theory will be able to integrate many diverse understandings of ethnic conflict from different schools of International Relations (IR) theory. I show the feasibility and the utility of such a theory.
