• Climate variability, food production shocks, and violent conflict in Sub-Saharan Africa (2015, background): “Emerging evidence suggests that food price shocks are associated with an increase in social unrest (Smith 2014, Bellemare 2015, Hendrix and Haggard 2015,Weinberg andBakker 2015).”
• The Economic Origins of Conflict in Africa (2017, unknown): “This interpretation is supported by Hendrix and Haggard (2015), who find that governments frequently alter policies in favor of consumers in the wake of price shocks.”
• Armed Conflicts and Food Insecurity: Evidence from Boko Haram's Attacks (2019, background): “Global food prices are also found to be correlated with food-related riots (Bellemare 2015) and urban unrest, measured by protests, demonstrations, and violence (Hendrix and Haggard 2015).”
