Abstract (english)
This paper analyzes health consequences of forced civilian displacement that occurred during the war in Croatia 1991-1995 which accompanied the demise of Yugoslavia. Using the Croatian Adult Health Survey 2003 we test whether displacement is relevant in explaining various dimensions of measured and self-assessed health. We adopt an instrumental variable approach where civilian casualties per county are used as an instrument for displacement. We find robust significant adverse effects on self-assessed health, on probability of suffering from systolic and diastolic hypertension, and on mental health and role emotional SF-36 dimensions. We also address possible channels of adverse effect, and find that displacement did not induce a change in healthy behaviors, and that the negative effect of displacement is channeled through adverse economic conditions that the displaced individuals face.
Abstract (croatian)
U radu se analiziraju zdravstvene posljedice raseljavanja stanovništva, uzrokovanog ratom u Hrvatskoj 1991.-1995., koji je pratio propast Jugoslavije. Koristeći Hrvatsku zdravstvenu anketu iz 2003. testiramo je li prognanički i izbjeglički status značajan u objašnjavanju različitih dimenzija mjerenog i samoprocijenjenog zdravlja. Koristimo pristup instrumentalnih varijabli gdje civilne žrtve po županijima služe kao instrument za prognanički i izbjeglički status. Nalazimo statistički značajan i robustan negativan učinak na samoprocijenjenjeno zdravlje, na vjerojatnost sistoličke i dijastoličke hipertenzije, kao i na dimenzije mentalnog zdravlja iz SF-36 upitnika. Također, analiziramo moguće kanale štetnog učinka, te pronalazimo kako raseljavanje ne uzrokuje promjenu u ponašanjima povezanim sa zdravljem te da se negativan učinak prognaništva i izbjeglištva kanalizira ponajprije kroz nepovoljne ekonomske uvjete s kojima su raseljeni pojedinci suočeni.
