important, such as revolution, peasant rebellion, or ethnic conflict. In everyday language, "civil war" (unlike "revolution") is a term that conveys a sense of violent division, often used as a metaphor for extreme conflict and widespread brutality. Civil war often refuses to speak its name. Euphemisms abound: one hears of "troubles," "emergency," "situation," or simply "violence." Indeed, civil war is often the object of serious semantic contestation. The very use of the term is part of the conflict itself, conferring or denying legitimacy (or status equality) to the parties in the conflict. The American Civil War was called The War of Rebel-lion" and "The Second American Revolution," depending on the favored side. During the war, the term is usually sought out by insurgents in search of legiti-macy, and denied by incumbents who label their opponents "bad guys," bandits, criminals, subversives, or terrorists - and describe the war as banditry, terrorism, delinquent subversion, and other cognate terms.' In fact, the repudiation of the term is common to all incumbent regimes, leftist and rightist, authoritarian and democratic alike (e.g., Horton 1998:11; Pavone 1994). Following a civil war's end, the term is often claimed by the vanquished in their quest for political redemption and inclusion, and denied by the winners who seek the permanent exclusion of the losers from the political, or even national, realm (Bobbio 1992). The spillover effect of this semantic contest has affected research on the topic, as definitions of civil war have tended, until recently at least, to hinge on the war's outcome (Price
