DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:The Long Shadow of the Spanish Civil War” joint with Ana Tur-Prats (UC Merc
 ed)\nAbstract: \nThe Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) was one of the most deva
 stating conflicts of the twentieth century, yet little is known about its l
 ong-term legacy. In this paper we show that the war had a significant long-
 lasting effect on social capital and voting behavior. We use geo-located da
 ta on historical mass graves, disaggregated modern-day survey data on trust
  combined with electoral results. To deal with the potential endogeneity of
  conflict, we use military plans of attack in conjunction with the historic
 al (1931) highway network, as well as a geographical Regression Discontinui
 ty Design around the Aragon Front. Our results show a significantly negativ
 e relationship between exhumed mass graves and generalized trust, pointing 
 towards the deleterious long-term effects of political violence against civ
 ilians. This result does not extend to general combat deaths. We further de
 compose trust, finding negative effects of conflict on trust in institution
 s associated with the Civil War (i.e. the Civil Guard and the military), bu
 t no effects when looking at trust on Post 1975 democratic institutions. We
  also find long-lasting results on voting, corresponding to the political r
 epression implemented in the Aragon Front. In terms of mechanisms, using a 
 specialized survey on the Civil War and street-level data, we find lower le
 vels of political engagement and differential patterns of collective memory
