DESCRIPTION:War-induced demographic shocks have been shown to increase fema
 le labour force participation (FLFP). However\, existing evidence predomina
 ntly stems from developed nations which may not fully capture the dynamics 
 in developing contexts due to differing levels of economic development and 
 institutional frameworks. To explore the effect of conflict on female labou
 r market outcomes in developing countries\, this paper examines the impact 
 of the Vietnam War on women's labour market outcomes 14 to 43 years after i
 ts conclusion. To this end\, I match comprehensive historical data on ordna
 nce deployed by the United States in Vietnam to microdata and leverage an O
 LS and difference-in-differences empirical strategy. Going from the 1st to 
 3rd quantile in exposure to ordnance increases the probability of Southern 
 women working by 6 percentage points. I also find that this effect is persi
 stent until present day. On the other hand\, I find no effect of exposure t
 o ordnance on the probability of working for Northern women\, and all men t
 hroughout Vietnam. I further explore whether an increase in FLFP in the Sou
 th was driven by higher demand for female labour due to a shortage in male 
 workers. Using the Vietnam Enterprise Survey\, I conclude that female labou
 r supply increased without concomitant increase in demand\; firm located in
  Southern provinces which experienced higher exposure to ordnance did not e
 xhibit a lower ratio of male to female workers. Instead\, I find that South
 ern women started their own businesses given the low demand in female labou
 r. Going from the 1st to the 3rd quantile in exposure to ordnance increases
  the share of female-founded firms by 4.68 percentage points in 2016.\\n\\n
