- ItemThe long run deadliness: state repression, compliance, and vaccination hesitancy in Chile(2021) Castro Stanley, María Leonor Teresita; Depetris Chauvin, Emilio; Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. Instituto de EconomíaIn the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, this paper empirically examines the long-run effects of state repression during individuals' impressionable years on compliance with government-imposed policies in Chile. Combining the location of military bases before the installment of Pinochet dictatorship and cohorts variation in the intensity of state repression during the first stages of adulthood (i.e., 18-25 years old), this paper shows that state repression negatively affected COVID-19 vaccination rates. On the other hand, compliance with stay-at-home orders is only affected by the legacy of state repression in the aftermath of two incidents that arguably undermined trust in government. Survey data does not suggest that self-reported generalized mistrust in institutions is affected by state repression during individuals' impressionable years. These results suggest that the link repression-compliance with government measures may be context-specific.
