What Do We Learn from the Weather? The New Climate-Economy Literature (2014, unknown): “Hidalgo et al. (2010) document that low rainfall shocks in Brazilian municipalities between 1988 and 2004 led the rural poor to invade and occupy large landholdings.”

Climate change and migration: Is agriculture the main channel? (2019, background): “In addition, a few papers have shown how, in the modern warm period, the increase in temperature fosters collective violence, such as land invasions in Brazil (Hidalgo et al., 2010) or civil war intensity in Somalia (Maystadt and Ecker, 2014).”
