abstract: 'Literature shows that religiosity can provide individual resilience to
|
|
|
|
life shocks as well as regional resilience to disasters caused by
|
|
|
|
natural hazards. Related work has examined the complicated links between
|
|
|
|
religion and economic growth. Yet few, if any, studies examine the role
|
|
|
|
of regional levels of religiosity on a region''s resilience to
|
|
|
|
recession-or how quickly the employment rate returns to pre-recession
|
|
|
|
levels (a common measure of resilience in the economics literature). As
|
|
|
|
the recovery period of the Great Recession cools and economists warn of
|
|
|
|
future economic downturns, all known variables that may be linked with
|
|
|
|
regional resilience are worthy of exploration. Using survey results from
|
|
|
|
the Gosling-Potter Internet Project and General Social Surveys, we
|
|
|
|
applied logarithmic functions to pre- and post-Great Recession
|
|
|
|
employment data for 2,836 U.S. counties. We found a modest and
|
|
|
|
statistically significant association between religious belief and
|
|
|
|
regional resilience to recession. Religiosity was the strongest of
|
|
|
|
sixteen psychosocial variables that we examined in association with the
|
|
|
|
speed of job recovery; despite having negative links with other economic
|
|
|
|
variables. This has particular salience for more rural economies; policy
|
|
|
|
implications are discussed.'
