Replication Data for: "Aid targeting in post-conflict Nepal", Conflict Management and Peace Science

This dataset contains replication code and data for 'Aid targeting in post-conflict Nepal", published in Conflict Management and Peace Science 2025. Abstract This study investigates the political underpinnings of aid allocations during Nepal's post-conflict transition. Were post-conflict aid allocations sensitive to civilian support for the rebels during the war, or driven by new electoral coalitions after the end of fighting? Constructing a municipal-level dataset, we leverage the geolocation of Nepalese army barracks prior to the conflict as instrument for civilians killed by the government, which in turn proxies government support. We find that rebel support significantly increased post-war aid allocations, while voting for the rebel party after the war did not.
