Abstract
⺠Social protection is meant alleviate the ills of poverty, not inequality. ⺠With a sample of 30 nations, we estimate a series of WLS regression models. ⺠Social protection has a significant negative effect on national homicide rates. ⺠Social protection diminishes the strength of the poverty-homicide association.
