In this paper we estimate the welfare cost of lethal violence in Brazil and analyze the impact of regional, educational, and gender heterogeneities. In the adopted approach, which is based on Rosen (1988) and Soares (2006), we calculate the marginal willingness to pay to avoid the risk of...

In this paper, we discuss the methodological procedures and the computation of the value of travel time saving and the value of statistical life in road travels in Brazil. A stated preference experiment was carried out, in which we bring some innovations in order to control for hypothetical...
