【题目】There Will Be Killing: Collectivization and Death of Draft Animals
Abstract：The deprivation of private property rights can wreak havoc on productive assets, as the owners can destroy them in order to keep some residual value. In China’s collectivization movement from 1955 to 1957, peasants slaughtered their draft animals instead of passing them to the collectives. By comparing 1,600 counties throughout China that launched the movement in different years, the difference-in-differences estimates suggest that the accumulative animal loss during the movement was 12 to 15 percent. Grain output dropped because of lower animal inputs and lower productivity.
