Robust standard errors in parentheses by using MLE method of estimation for SAR and SDM models. Control variables for specification (2) and (4) of SDM models: human rights variables (political regime, country identifier, disappearance extrajudicial killing, political imprisonment, torture, freedom of assembly and association), regional dummies, time dummies. Definition of human rights variables is given in the data section. *, ** and *** represent the level of significance at 1%, 5% and 10%. Panel dimension: time = 1991–2014, countries: 100 in total
