中文摘要

摘要我们识别了智利346个市镇交错实施和解除封锁对家庭暴力（DV）的动态影响。封锁增加了家庭暴力求助热线电话和庇护所入住率，但未增加家庭暴力警方报案。这些结果与封锁提高发生率并造成报案障碍相一致。封锁解除后，庇护所入住率下降，警方报案激增，但求助热线电话仍维持在较高水平，这与家庭暴力中的状态依赖性一致。我们识别出男性失业是驱动家庭暴力的一种机制。我们的发现凸显了围绕封锁令福利影响的争议。现金转移支付缓解了封锁对家庭暴力的不利影响。

Abstract

Abstract We identify dynamic impacts on domestic violence (DV) of the staggered imposition and lifting of lockdown across Chile’s 346 municipalities. Lockdown increases DV helpline calls and shelter occupancy without increasing DV police reports. These results are consistent with lockdown raising incidence and creating barriers to reporting. Once lockdown is lifted, shelter occupancy falls and police reports surge, but helpline calls remain elevated in line with state dependence in DV. We identify male job loss as a mechanism driving DV. Our findings accentuate controversy around welfare impacts of lockdown mandates. Adverse impacts of lockdown on DV are mitigated by cash transfers.
