摘要

在2010年人口与健康调查中，我们利用种族灭绝强度的公社差异以及儿童工作和上学情况来估计卢旺达种族灭绝对种族灭绝后出生的儿童的影响。我们利用公社离乌干达边境的距离来进行杀戮。人均死亡人数增加一倍，儿童工作的可能性增加3.35个百分点，儿童上学的可能性减少3.68个百分点。我们的研究结果表明，种族灭绝的长期影响可能会影响卢旺达未来的发展。

The Long-Term Effects of the Rwandan Genocide on Child Work

We estimate the effect of the Rwandan genocide on children born after the genocide using commune variation in genocide intensity and child work and schooling in the 2010 Demographic and Health Survey. We instrument for killings with the commune’s distance to the Ugandan border. Doubling killings per capita increases the probability of a child working by 3.35 percentage points and decreases the probability of a child attending school by 3.68 percentage points. Our results suggest a long-term impact of the genocide likely to affect Rwanda’s development into the future.

期刊介绍： Economic Development and Cultural Change (EDCC) is an economic journal publishing studies that use modern theoretical and empirical approaches to examine both the determinants and the effects of various dimensions of economic development and cultural change. EDCC’s focus is on empirical papers with analytic underpinnings, concentrating on micro-level evidence, that use appropriate data to test theoretical models and explore policy impacts related to a broad range of topics relevant to economic development.
