[NOTE: This post is based on the paper, ** “ The Robust Relationship between US Food Aid and Civil Conflict”,** Journal of Applied Econometrics, 2017] Replication can often be thought of as a useful tool to train graduate students or as a starting point for a new line of research, but sometimes replication is necessary as a means to check the robustness of results that can directly influence policy.
