- W2183667711 abstract "The positive relationship between development and democracy is well-established at a cross-country level, and its causes have been debated extensively. However, less is known about the impact of economic development at a micro level on political behavior, particularly on the competitiveness of elections, which is important for democratic accountability. In this paper, I use a dierence-indierence model and an instrumental variable to estimate the eect of new mines opening in some areas of one county in rural Liberia and not others as a shock to the level of economic development in the area, primarily through the provision of low-skilled jobs to local residents, between the 2005 and 2011 elections. Specically, I examine the dierential change in the concentration of votes on a single or small number of candidates at the level of the polling station between areas with mines and those without. I instrument for new mines opening with the presence of mineral deposits to control for any potential time-varying confounding variables. I nd that across the presidential, House, and Senate elections, there are consistent increases in the competitiveness of votes in areas that receive new mines between the two elections. These increases do not appear to be due to changes in the number of candidates running for oce. Areas around the mines, however, are less likely to vote for the incumbent." @default.
