Sarah Croco, 2016, "Replication Data for: The Flipside of Flip-Flopping: Leader Inconsistency, Citizen Preferences and the War in Iraq", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/WL89Q2, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:iZZ10Dl8tihHNgmNTf5b9Q== [fileUNF]
In recent years the term “flip-flopper” has become increasingly prominent. Politicians employ the term in an attempt to make their opponents look unattractive to voters. The question of whether this tactic works, however, remains unanswered. Existing research demonstrates that citizens do not like inconsistency as a matter of principle, but we know... |

Paul Bezerra; Jacob Cramer; Megan Hauser; Jennifer Miller; Thomas J. Volgy, 2016, "Replication Data for: Going for the Gold versus Distributing the Green: Foreign Policy Substitutability and Complementarity in Status Enhancement Strategies", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/ZOYYMJ, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:3buosoUyu7y12XFjBn8zbw== [fileUNF]
States have at their disposal an array of policy options and strategies with which to pursue additional status in international politics. One recent work contends that states use the Olympics as a tool with which to receive additional status. We argue, in the context of foreign policy substitutability, that adhering to the norm of resource transfer... |

Michael Allen; Michael Flynn; Julie VanDusky-Allen, 2016, "Replication Data for: The Localized and Spatial Effects of US Troop Deployments on Host-state Defense Spending", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/YBO9GM, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:VDhMGw7EjACcOnKDOFmqZA== [fileUNF]
We analyze how the deployment of US troops affects host-state defense spending. We test this relationship, from 1951 to 2003, by examining how the deployment of US military forces impacts defense spending in different types of states, including US allies, NATO members, non-allies of the United States, and all states. We also utilize spatial measure... |

Courtenay Conrad; Justin Conrad; James A. Piazza; James Igoe Walsh, 2016, "Replication Data for: Why Military Forces Respond to Terrorism with Torture", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/J3PK3T, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:JIVjs0zAzmJtnA8qLLRMeA== [fileUNF]
Do governments respond to terrorism with torture? Although states face incentives to increase torture in response to terrorist attacks, previous research finds no relationship between terror and government torture. We argue that these null findings are unsurprising because incentives to violate human rights differ across domestic government agencie... |

Bryan R. Early; Robert Spice, 2016, "Replication Data for: Unmasking the Black Knights: Sanctions Busters and Their Effects on the Success of Economic Sanctions", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/KMLYEY, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:RHMTgC2hHff9cbGPDBD5xQ== [fileUNF]
Despite clear expectations that sanctions busters undermine the effectiveness of economic sanctions, most empirical studies of the phenomenon fail to find that they significantly affect sanctions outcomes. One explanation for these puzzling results is that past studies have almost all relied on Hufbauer, Schott, and Elliott’s (1990) dichotomous, ti... |

Daniel S. Morey, 2016, "Replication Data for: Military Coalitions and the Outcome of Interstate Wars", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/YAAUMQ, Harvard Dataverse, V1
Approximately one-third of all interstate conflicts are multilateral, with the majority of these having a coalition of states fighting on at least one side. Despite the frequency of coalition wars, coalitions have not received much attention within the conflict literature. This paper presents the first general study on the effectiveness of coalitio... |

Dursun Peksen, 2016, "Replication Data for: Economic Sanctions and the Domestic Sources of Defiance to Foreign Pressure in Target Countries: The Case of Government Predation", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/9H9ROX, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:gZQplCYBXmwCFrYAgyXpRQ== [fileUNF]
What domestic policies do targeted regimes pursue to survive economic sanctions? Despite an abundance of research on the use and effectiveness of sanctions, scant research has been conducted on the domestic sources of the target’s defiance to foreign pressure. This study explores the extent to which sanctions prompt the target regimes to manipulate... |

Victor Asal; Marcus Schulzke; Amy Pate, 2016, "Replication Data for: Why Do Some Organizations Kill While Others Do Not: An Examination of Middle Eastern Organizations", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/ZFEBHI, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:uhXrmVFFB0B4n5upOP0UMw== [fileUNF]
This study addresses the question of why organizations choose to use violence as a strategy using the Political Organizations Dataset (POD) data set, which includes both violent and nonviolent organizations from the Middle East. Our findings show that religious ideology and social service provisions have less influence on this decision than the exi... |

Chia-yi Lee, 2016, "Replication Data for: Terrorism, Counterterrorism Aid, and Foreign Direct Investment", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/DX4HLQ, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:EeQ0qsVt5A6OcEL0+T/S0Q== [fileUNF]
Foreign investors generally refrain from entering countries with high political risks. As an often seen type of political risk, terrorism may deter foreign investors by creating an unsafe investment environment. This paper explores whether terrorism reduces foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows and argues that foreign investors adjust their infor... |

Hoon Lee, 2016, "Replication Data for: Does Armed Conflict Reduce Foreign Direct Investment in the Petroleum Sector", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/LOPO9L, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:pojFgv8UiKH1f97A+HYfqQ== [fileUNF]
Existing studies argue that armed conflict reduces foreign direct investment (FDI) or, following rational expectations theory, should not affect FDI. In this paper, I offer a new theory on how armed conflict affects FDI, which encompasses the interaction between political risk and market conditions and provides a systematic explanation for investor... |
