Armed conflict exposure, human capital investments and child labor: evidence from Colombia
This paper estimates the effect that exposure to armed conflict has on school drop-out and labor decisions of Colombian children between the ages of six and seventeen. We use a duration analysis methodology, complemented by biprobit estimations. Both approaches take into account the possible endogen...

We use a duration analysis methodology, complemented by biprobit estimations. Both approaches take into account the possible endogeneity of municipal conflict-related events through the use of instrumental variables. We find that conflict especially affects children older than eleven, inducing them to drop out of school and enter the labor market too early. We provide evidence that such effects may be generated through higher mortality risks, negative economic shocks and lesser school quality.Utilizando una combinación de datos única con información de hogares y violencia a nivel municipal este trabajo estima el efecto de la exposición al conflicto armado sobre las decisiones de deserción estudiantil y trabajo infantil de niños y jóvenes colombianos entre los seis y los diecisiete años. Para esto utilizamos modelos de duración que complementamos con modelos bi-proboit. Ambas metodologías tienen en cuenta la posible endogeneidad del conflicto a través del uso de variables instrumentales. Encontramos que el conflicto afecta de manera más importante a los niños mayores de once años, induciéndolos a dejar la escuela y entrar al mercado laboral muy temprano. Se presenta evidencia de que este efecto es inducido en primer lugar por una disminución en la expectativa de vida de los individuos generada por el conflicto y, en una menor medida, por los efectos negativos del conflicto en la actividad económica y la calidad educativa de los colegios a los que los niños asisten.45 páginasapplication/pdfengUniversidad de los Andes, Facultad de Economía, CEDEDocumentos CEDE No. 05 Febrero de 2009https://ideas.repec.org/p/col/000089/005400.htmlArmed conflict exposure, human capital investments and child labor: evidence from ColombiaDocumento de trabajoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/workingPaperhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_8042http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85Texthttps://purl.org/redcol/resource_type/WPArmed conflictColombiaDuration analysisConflicto armado - ColombiaCapital humano - ColombiaTrabajo infantil - ColombiaFacultad de EconomíaPublicationORIGINALdcede2009-05.pdfdcede2009-05.pdfapplication/pdf432414https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/e869ed99-20fc-4a91-bdba-ea2b37f6316e/downloadc5cd3d4c79f7a9f8f37969b0e85a463eMD51THUMBNAILdcede2009-05.pdf.jpgdcede2009-05.pdf.jpgIM Thumbnailimage/jpeg3305https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/ebf973a5-001f-409e-8524-c5b49a460f98/download69913da91253a616a3eef9abdd4d054bMD55TEXTdcede2009-05.pdf.txtdcede2009-05.pdf.txtExtracted texttext/plain80856https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/6da9f59c-f2d2-4fee-b0a9-7b5a24c1c3e9/download075b64f038e2e3b172813e0e55597c50MD541992/8094oai:repositorio.uniandes.edu.co:1992/80942024-06-04 15:49:04.839http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/open.accesshttps://repositorio.uniandes.edu.coRepositorio institucional Sénecaadminrepositorio@uniandes.edu.co |
