【 摘 要 】
Although the effects of insecurity arebelieved to be important, these have never been directlymeasured. Previous estimates of the costs of conflict haveonly captured the joint effect of violence and insecurity.The distinction is important for understanding the originsof the costs and for policy design. Spatially disaggregatedmeasures of insecurity are created based on thespatial-temporal variation in the placement of violence.These are used to generate the first estimates of therelative causal contributions of the risk and experience ofviolence. The article also provides the first micro-databased counterpart to the cross-country literature on thecosts of conflict.
