摘要

This study examines the impact of the 2012 Islamist uprising in northern Mali on human capital and demographics. It finds that female educational attainment declined significantly under Islamist control, especially in rural areas, while male education was less affected. Women exposed during school age also had more children and started families earlier. Attitudes toward domestic violence remained unchanged. The findings suggest Islamist influence can hinder human capital development, posing challenges to economic growth. As Islamist militant groups expand across sub-Saharan Africa, their impact on education and demographics may increasingly obstruct broader development goals.
