This paper is part of the Polarization and Conflict Project CIT-2-CT-2004-506084 funded by the European Commission-DG Research Sixth Framework Programme. A different paper by the same authors circulated under the same title. We liked the title better than the paper; so we scrapped the second and kept the first. Thanks to Alberto Alesina, Bill Easterly and other participants to the Political Economy Summer Meetings of the NBER. We are also thankful to Antonella Cuteri and Alessio Farcomeni for valuable research assistance on R programming language.
