Resumen
Descripción
This paper examines how households trade
off migration and savings when subject to exogenous
violence. The authors propose that households under violence
decide jointly on migration and saving, because a higher
asset-stock is more difficult to carry to a new place. When
confronted with exogenous violence, households are expected
to consider migration, and reduce their assets, both in
order to reduce their exposure to violence, and to make
migration easier. In some cases, after a migration decision
has been taken, savings can increase as a function of
violence to ensure a minimum bundle to carry. Empirical
evidence from rich Colombian micro-data supports the
conceptual framework for violence that carries a
displacement threat, such as guerrilla attacks.
