Steele, Carie, 2017, "Public Goods and Donor Priorities: The Political Economy of Development Aid for Infectious Disease Control", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/VQATCM, Harvard Dataverse, V1
Over the last two decades, development assistance for health (DAH) has reached record levels. Yet, many developing states continue to struggle with diseases easily prevented and treated in industrialized states. Within the aid literature, DAH has historically been viewed as technical rather than political and has been largely disregarded. I argue t... |

Fordham, Benjamin; Kleinberg, Katja, 2016, "Don't Know Much about Foreign Policy: Assessing the Impact of "Don't Know" and "No Opinion" Responses on Inferences about Foreign Policy Attitudes", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/3RPBBT, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:niKowCH9GSUV2zDFUOYITA== [fileUNF]
Public opinion surveys on American foreign policy often elicit many "don't know" or "no opinion" responses. Researchers have paid surprisingly little attention to these responses, typically dropping them from their analyses or suppressing them in the survey design. We argue that these practices lead to potentially misleading conclusions about both... |

This articles probes into scope conditions for image change, investigating what changes in Russian images of the European Union (EU) have taken place as a result of the Russian-Ukrainian crisis. The crisis, a catalytic event, has been surrounded by uncertainty and strong emotions and is seen as a potential historical watershed in EU-Russian relatio... |

Shelley Wick, 2016, "Replication Data for: Capabilities, Cooperation, and Culture: Mapping American Ambivalence toward China", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/VOVFDU, Harvard Dataverse, V1
The Sino-American relationship is arguably the most important bilateral relationship in the world. Whether this relationship remains peaceful or becomes conflictual will have far-reaching economic and political ramifications. For over two decades, American analysts have been attempting to answer one question: Is China a threat to the United States?... |

Clayton Thyne; Jonathan Powell, 2016, "Replication Data for: Coup d'etat or Coup d'Autocracy? How Coups Impact Democratization, 1950-2008", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/RYPUEF, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:OKFXNDJYLOf1VeZ/guudKA== [fileUNF]
This paper considers how coups impact democratization. Current research focuses on coups as a threat to consolidated and fledgling democracies. Policy-makers have adapted to this viewpoint by treating coups as unjustifiable maneuvers that must be curtailed, with states frequently terminating aid and IOs suspending membership following a coup. While... |

Patricia Sullivan; Brock Tessman; Xiaojun Li, 2016, "Replication Data for: U.S. Military Aid and Recipient State Cooperation", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/4QSK8Z, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:ghfHgpsFe59Fb4GZG5OPMg== [fileUNF]
What can states expect to receive in return for the military aid they provide to other states? Can military aid buy recipient state compliance with donor objectives? In this study, we systematically investigate the effects of U.S. military assistance on recipient state behavior toward the United States. We build on existing literature by creating t... |

Todd Sandler; Hirofumi Shimizu, 2016, "Replication Data for: NATO Burden Sharing 1999–2010: An Altered Alliance", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/3MNPJ1, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:Tyr2GRHvP++2474ZWe7OEg== [fileUNF]
Motivated by US Secretary of Defense Robert Gates’ farewell address to NATO, this article investigates whether NATO burden-sharing behavior has changed during the last ten years. Based on a Spearman rank correlation test, we find almost no evidence that the rich NATO allies shouldered the defense spending burden of the poor allies during 1999–2009.... |
Dan Reiter, 2016, "Replication Data for: Security Commitments and Nuclear Proliferation", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/HK6PKL, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:OmARUieltXJVTq+1zMB4kQ== [fileUNF]
This article develops a theory connecting security commitments and the decision to acquire nuclear weapons. In a threatening environment, third party security commitments can reduce a state’s fear of abandonment in the event of war and its motive for acquiring nuclear weapons. However, a threatened state may reject at least some kinds of security c... |

Seden Akcinaroglu; Elizabeth Radziszewski; Paul Diehl, 2016, "Replication Data for: The Effects of Rivalry on Rivalry: Accommodation and the Management of Threats", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/HAMSQO, Harvard Dataverse, V1
The paper investigates how states manage multiple rivalries when faced with immediate threats. We argue that accommodation of one rival allows states to shift resources from the management of another rival to deal with the costs of immediate threats. By examining enduring rivalries from 1966-1999, we show that states’ reliance on accommodation in r... |
