Project Description
Summary:
View help for Summary
Nunn and Wantchekon (2011) detect a long-lasting impact of the slave trade on current
trust levels across ethnic groups in Africa. They use data from Afrobarometer’s wave 3
to construct trust measures. Using data from more recent waves which were collected
after the paper was published, I fail to replicate some of the paper’s central findings.
Plausible explanations are discussed.
