使用2005-09年印尼亚齐渔村的三波调查数据,我们研究了海啸后当地志愿者劳动力的决定因素。义务劳动力是村公共部门用于维修、清理和翻新公共资本的劳动力。在研究村庄破坏和创伤、预先存在的社会资本、多样性和援助交付对志愿服务的影响的同时,我们重点关注民主化的影响。海啸和大规模的国际援助努力促使亚齐的叛乱运动得到解决,这导致在过去20多年里地方选举暂停。直到2006年,召集志愿者日的村长实际上是由村庄精英选出的,他们可能非常重视志愿者劳动维护的公共设施。随着选举的进行,志愿者日在新的制度下,民主选举产生的村长召集的志愿者日减少了,这可能对典型的村民更具吸引力。识别来自于伪随机化的差分选举时间。
Using three waves of survey data from fishing villages in Aceh, Indonesia for 2005-09, we examine the determinants of local volunteer labor after the tsunami. Volunteer labor is the village public sector labor force for maintenance, clean-up and renovation of public capital. While also examining the effects on volunteerism of village destruction and trauma, pre-existing social capital, diversity, and aid delivery, we focus on effects of democratization. The tsunami and massive international aid effort prompted the settlement of the insurgency movement in Aceh, which had led to suspension of local elections over the prior twenty or more years. Until 2006, village heads who call volunteer days were effectively selected by village elites, who may highly value the public facilities maintained by volunteer labor. With elections, volunteer days fall under the new regime, with democratically elected village heads calling fewer volunteer days, which may appeal more to the typical villager. Identification comes from pseudo-randomized differential timing of elections.
