“…For example, the 8 Philippine Civilian Armed Forces Geographical Units (CAFGU) were deployed against Moro rebels after the NPA threat declined. 38 As opposed to a specific group being redeployed, state forces were using the same label for different groups in another part of the country.

The research to-date on pro-government militias demonstrates that numerous pro-regime militia groups were actively deployed in civil wars over the last half a century. As hundreds of militia groups emerged amid civil warfare, hundreds more were disbanded, integrated into regular military or transformed into political forces. This study seeks to improve our understanding of global patterns of militia demobilisation. In contrast to the growing body of literature that explores the emergence of militias or examines their relationship with the state, studies on the demise of pro-government militias are notable by their absence. Statistical analysis of 220 pro-government militias involved in 75 civil wars from 1981 to 2011, based on a recent database of progovernment militias, demonstrates that the disappearance of militias has little to do with the termination of armed conflict. This study is first to investigate when and under which conditions militias created to assist governments in fighting civil wars disband.
