    Group concentration and violence: does ethnic segregation affect domestic terrorism?
    (Taylor & Francis, 2019) Ezcurra Orayen, Roberto; Economía; Ekonomia
    This paper examines the link between ethnic segregation and domestic terrorism. The results show that ethnic segregation has a positive and significant effect on the incidence of domestic terrorism, which indicates that countries where ethnic groups are spatially concentrated face a higher risk of suffering this type of violence. This finding is not affected by the inclusion in the analysis of different covariates that may affect both ethnic segregation and domestic terrorism. The observed relationship between the degree of spatial concentration of ethnic groups and domestic terrorism is confirmed by various robustness tests. The results also suggest that the threat of secession is an important transmission channel linking ethnic segregation and domestic terrorism.

    Does ethnic segregation matter for spatial inequality?
    (Oxford University Press, 2017) Ezcurra Orayen, Roberto; Rodríguez Pose, Andrés; Ekonomia; Institute for Advanced Research in Business and Economics - INARBE; Economía
    The article examines the link between ethnic segregation and spatial inequality in 71 countries with different levels of economic development. The results reveal that ethnic segregation is associated with significantly higher levels of spatial inequality. This finding is not affected by the inclusion of various covariates that may influence both spatial inequality and the geographical distribution of ethnic groups, and is confirmed by a number of robustness tests. The results also suggest that political decentralisation and government quality could act as transmission channels linking ethnic segregation and spatial inequality.
