DESCRIPTION:*How do climate conditions shape religiosity and religious part
 icipation? We investigate how religious participation and religious communi
 ty organisation respond both to weather shocks and long-term climate trends
 . We match individual-level data from the Nigeria General Household Survey 
 panel spanning 10 years with the Standardised Precipitation-Evapotranspirat
 ion Index (SPEI) and construct a detailed agricultural season using granula
 r rainfall data from the Climate Hazards Group InfraRed Precipitation with 
 Station (CHIRPS).**This paper presents a framework for estimating and simul
 ating a quantitative spatial model of trade and violence. In this new theor
 etical and empirical setup\, suited for disciplining subnational and intern
 ational data\, we first model the general equilibrium interactions between 
 the economic and fighting margins in a micro-founded setup. We then show ho
 w the structural parameters can be recovered from the data in a simple and 
 transparent way. A central element of the procedure consists in estimating 
 a structural gravity equation of violence. Looking at sub-Saharan Africa ov
 er the period 1997 to 2023\, we test the key predictions of the model and u
 ncover new facts related to spatial frictions and conflicts. Finally\, the 
 model is used to quantify counterfactual policy interventions that aim at p
 romoting development in weakly institutionalized contexts where insecurity 
 is pervasive.\\n\\nContact: Lucie Giorgi: lucie.giorgi[at]univ-amu.frRicard
