%X The goal of this article is to examine the causal relationship between 
murders and economic activity in 
Colombia during the last decades. 
This analysis draws on the fact that 
economic activity in other Latin 
American countries is highly correlated with economic activity in Colombia, but is not affected by homicidal 
violence in Colombia. The use of this 
instrument allows us to establish a 
strong causal effect of economic activity on murders. An analysis of time 
series provides further support for the 
hypothesis that there is a long-term 
relationship between murders and 
economic activity.
