The effects of crime and violence on food insecurity and consumption in Nigeria
Households living in conflict-affected areas are vulnerable to violence and crime perpetrated by various types of actors. By exploiting variation in the timing, intensity, and spatial distribution of attacks against households in Nigeria, this study finds that becoming a victim leads to higher food insecurity and decreased food and non-food consumption. Property crimes are more detrimental to consumption and food insecurity than violence is. The findings remain robust to accounting for conflict in the geographical proximity to the household. Our results indicate that information on victimization can be used for building safety nets in conflict-affected areas.
期刊介绍:
Food Policy is a multidisciplinary journal publishing original research and novel evidence on issues in the formulation, implementation, and evaluation of policies for the food sector in developing, transition, and advanced economies.
Our main focus is on the economic and social aspect of food policy, and we prioritize empirical studies informing international food policy debates. Provided that articles make a clear and explicit contribution to food policy debates of international interest, we consider papers from any of the social sciences. Papers from other disciplines (e.g., law) will be considered only if they provide a key policy contribution, and are written in a style which is accessible to a social science readership.
