Education, Poverty, Political Violence and Terrorism:Is There a Causal Connection?Alan B. Krueger and Jitka MaleckovaNBER Working Paper No. 9074July 2002JEL No. J2

ABSTRACT

The paper investigates whether there is a causal link between poverty or low education and

participation in politically motivated violence and terrorist activities. After presenting a discussion of

theoretical issues, we review evidence on the determinants of hate crimes. This literature finds that the

occurrence of hate crimes is largely independent of economic conditions. Next we analyze data on

support for attacks against Israeli targets from public opinion polls conducted in the West Bank and Gaza

Strip. These polls indicate that support for violent attacks does not decrease among those with higher

education and higher living standards. The core contribution of the paper is a statistical analysis of the

determinants of participation in Hezbollah militant activities in Lebanon. The evidence we have

assembled suggests that having a living standard above the poverty line or a secondary school or higher

education is positively associated with participation in Hezbollah. We also find that Israeli Jewish settlers

who attacked Palestinians in the West Bank in the early 1980s were overwhelmingly from high-paying

occupations. The conclusion speculates on why economic conditions and education are largely unrelated

to participation in, and support for, terrorism.
