So as to keep two talented daughters at university... Food – they save on. Clothes – they save on those too. Accommodation – they all share a single room. All so that the studies and textbooks they won’t be short. It was always like that with Jewish families: they believed that education was an investment for the future, the only thing that no one can ever take away from your children, even if, Heaven forbid, there’s another war, another revolution, more discriminatory laws – your diploma you can always fold up quickly, hide it in the seams of your clothes, and run away to wherever Jews are allowed to live.” (Oz 2005: 172).

Diffusion of Gender Norms: Evidence from Stalin's Ethnic Deportations
Document de travail (Docweb) n°2103 Diffusion of Gender Norms: Evidence from Stalin’s Ethnic Deportations Antonela Miho Alexandra Jarotschkin Ekaterina Zhuravskaya Avril 2021 Diffusion des normes de genre : les conséquences des déportations à l’ère stalinienne1 Antonela Miho2, Alexandra Jarotschkin 3, Ekaterina Zhuravskaya 4 Résumé : Nous étudions la transmission culturelle horizontale entre groupes à l’aide d’un contexte historique unique, qui combine l’exposition à un groupe exogène sans contrôle de l’interaction entre les représentants des différents groupes. Les déportations ethniques de Staline pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale ont déplacé plus de 2 millions de personnes - dont la majorité étaient des Allemands et des Tchétchènes - des régions occidentales de l’URSS vers l’Asie centrale et la Sibérie. En con- séquence, la population indigène des lieux de déportation a été exposée de manière exogène à des groupes aux normes de genre radicalement différentes. En combinant des données d’archives his- toriques et des enquêtes contemporaines, nous démontrons que les normes de genre se sont diffusées des déportés vers la population locale, entraînant des changements d’attitudes et de comportements. Les normes d’égalité des sexes se sont diffusées davantage que les normes de discrimination sexuelle. Mots-clés : Transmission culturelle horizontale, Normes de genre, Déportations, Staline Fiscal incentives for conflict: Evidence from India’s Red Corridor Abstract : We study horizontal between-group cultural transmission using a unique historical setting, which combines exogenous group exposure with no control over whether and how the representatives of different groups interact. Stalin’s ethnic deportations during WWII moved over 2 million peo- ple—the majority of whom were ethnic Germans and Chechens— from the Western parts of the USSR to Central Asia and Siberia. -

Forced Migration and Human Capital: Evidence from Post-WWII
American Economic Review 2020, 110(5): 1430–1463 https://doi.org/10.1257/aer.20181518 Forced Migration and Human Capital: Evidence from Post-WWII Population Transfers† By Sascha O. Becker, Irena Grosfeld, Pauline Grosjean, Nico Voigtländer, and Ekaterina Zhuravskaya* We study the long-run effects of forced migration on investment in education. After World War II, millions of Poles were forcibly uprooted from the Kresy territories of eastern Poland and resettled primarily in the newly acquired Western Territories, from which the( Germans) were expelled. We combine historical censuses with newly collected survey data to show that, while there were no pre-WWII differences in educational attainment, Poles with a family history of forced migration are significantly more educated today than other Poles. These results are driven by a shift in preferences away from material possessions toward investment in human capital. JEL I25, I26, J24, N34, R23 ( ) And so it happened that … the marshall came: “Leave.”—“But where should I go?”— “To Poland.” And I say: “I am in Poland.” And he says: “This is not Poland anymore.”1 Forced migration is a life-changing experience. It leaves deep scars in the memory of expellees. Does the experience also affect subsequent generations?
