Project overview

EXPOVIBE explores how exposure to political violence in a civil conflict context impacts upon social, economic and political behaviours and attitudes of individuals. As part of the project two large-n survey studies were designed and conducted in Turkey to analyse: a) whether those exposed to political violence in a civil conflict context are more likely to be perpetrators of domestic violence against their intimate partners; b) whether exposure to political violence impacts upon risk, time and social preferences, savings behaviour, career choices, success in professional life and earnings; c) whether exposure to political violence affects political participation, political tolerance, political support, ideology, voting behaviour, and party choice.

The project was submitted to the SH1:Individuals, Markets and Organizations and SH2:Institutions, Governance and Legal Systems panels of the ERC.
