EVや太陽光に必要な鉱物採掘が紛争と結びつく問題に対し、EU紛争鉱物規則と中国の3つのデューデリジェンス・イニシアチブの効果を、2015〜2024年のコンゴ民主共和国東部で検証した。後発の取り組みは鉱夫からの搾取型暴力を減らす一方、初期の取り組みは大規模・小規模鉱山間の紛争型暴力を増やした。小規模鉱夫への明確な基準設定や密輸困難な鉱物の対象化が差異を説明しうる。
English
This paper examines whether EU and Chinese due diligence initiatives reduce violent conflict around green and critical mineral mines in eastern DRC (2015-2024). Later initiatives are associated with less predation violence against miners, while earlier ones correlate with more conflict between large- and small-scale miners. Clearer standards for artisanal miners and coverage of hard-to-smuggle minerals may explain the difference.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
重要鉱物の調達デューデリジェンスは、SSBJ・有報でのサプライチェーン開示やEU電池規則対応を進める日本企業にとって、調達リスク管理と人権DDの実効性を考える上で示唆に富む。
In the global GX context
Directly informs the global disclosure agenda on minerals supply chains—EU Conflict Minerals Regulation, CSDDD, and emerging critical-minerals due diligence—by providing rare causal evidence on whether such initiatives actually reduce conflict on the ground.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:デューデリジェンス規制の実効性を紛争データで測る準実験的アプローチの好例。
🏢実務担当者:重要鉱物調達のDD設計で、小規模鉱夫への基準明確化と対象鉱物の選定が紛争リスク低減に効く可能性を示す。
🏛政策担当者:規制の設計次第で暴力の種類が変わりうるため、小規模採掘者への配慮と複数規制の相互補完を考慮すべき。
📄 Abstract（原文）
Green technologies crucial to climate change mitigation, such as electric cars and solar panels, require great quantities of minerals. This potentially connects climate change mitigation to conflict, as existing literature associates minerals mining with violent conflict. The EU and China recently enacted sofar under-studied due diligence initiatives to mitigate such conflict. This paper investigates the potential of four sets of due diligence initiatives to promote a peaceful pathway to climate change mitigation: the EU Conflict Minerals Regulation and three initiatives by China. These initiatives were announced at different times, and apply to mines of different minerals at different scales. We exploit this variation to investigate the association between due diligence initiatives and conflict in eastern DRC between 2015-2024. Results suggest that due diligence initiatives are associated with decreased violence consistent with predation on miners, but increased violence consistent with conflict between large-scale and small-scale miners. The first association dominates for later initiatives, but the last association dominates for earlier initiatives. Plausible explanations for this difference include: later initiatives set clearer standards for small-scale miners, covered more difficult-to-smuggle minerals, or existence of multiple initiatives meant a greater critical mass of companies practiced due diligence.
