Chapter 9 No Easy Answers. 330 $aThis book examines engagements with financial services in contexts of conflict. Using Liberia and the Democratic Republic of the Congo as case studies, it explores informal financial and business strategies and how these shift during conflict. Through a combination of regression analyses and panel data modeling with fixed effects, the project research indicates that conflict has a stronger effect on the nature of demand for credit and savings services than it has on the actual performance of financial institutions. In examining these patterns, the importance of networks and family becomes increasingly important?not just in the ways they are important to us as individuals, but as important determinants of post-war outcomes. . 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aSocial change 606 $aAfrica?Politics and government 606 $aEconomic development projects?Finance 606 $aPeace 606 $aTerrorism 606 $aPolitical violence 606 $aDevelopment and Social Change$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913030 606 $aAfrican Politics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911090 606 $aDevelopment Finance$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/625000 606 $aConflict Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912060 606 $aTerrorism and Political Violence$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912090 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 0$aSocial change. 615 0$aAfrica?Politics and government. 615 0$aEconomic development projects?Finance. 615 0$aPeace. 615 0$aTerrorism. 615 0$aPolitical violence. 615 14$aDevelopment and Social Change. 615 24$aAfrican Politics. 615 24$aDevelopment Finance. 615 24$aConflict Studies. 615 24$aTerrorism and Political Violence. 676 $a332.109689405 700 $aSmith-Omomo$b Julia$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01063373 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910338056703321 996 $aAfrican Indigenous Financial Institutions$92531990 997 $aUNINA
