Economics of Security is an initiative managed by DIW Berlin
The Economics of Security Working Paper Series combines outputs of European Security Economics (EUSECON), a research project supported by the European Commission’s Seventh Framework Programme, with outputs of the Network for the Economic Analysis of Terrorism (NEAT), which is funded by the European Commission’s Directorate General for Justice, Freedom, and Security. Papers not funded by EUSECON or by NEAT can still be submitted for inclusion in this Working Paper Series. Correct citation: Goderis, B. and Versteeg, M.
