Margarita’s thesis applies economic methods to estimate reasons for and consequences of terrorism. In particular, Margarita is examining the association between ethnic inequality and terrorism; the effect of terrorism on life satisfaction; and a population’s willingness-to-pay for a reduction in terrorism. Margarita’s interest lies in economic analysis of crime, public choice models and cost-benefit analysis for crime reduction programs.
