摘要: The study examines how the Russia-Ukraine conflict's disruption of food access affected social unrest in countries that heavily rely on wheat imports from Ukraine from March 2021 to February 2023. Using a Difference-in-Differences (DID) approach, we compared nations highly dependent on Ukrainian wheat imports with those less reliant to assess causality. The results show a significant increase in internal protests, with high-dependence countries experiencing a 22.95% surge in protests post-invasion. Specifically, cost of living, food access and government dissatisfaction played a significant role in driving this increase. Moreover, it is more pronounced in poorer nations, those with weaker government stability, proximity to Ukraine, and substantial currency depreciation. These findings highlight the need to address food access issues to curb social unrest.
