Morse, Julia C., 2019, "Replication Data for "Blacklists, Market Enforcement, and the Global Regime to Combat Terrorist Financing"", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/YCSFSC, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:caUlSKr+JIVgH5pJ5uoEtg== [fileUNF]
This paper highlights how international organizations can use Global Performance Indicators (GPIs) to drive policy change through transnational market pressure. When international organizations are credible assessors of state policy, and when monitored countries compete for market resources, GPIs transmit information about country risk and stabiliz... |

Honig, Daniel; Weaver, Catherine, 2019, "Replication Data for: A Race to the Top? The Aid Transparency Index and the Social Power of Global Performance Indicators", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/3GQTYA, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:Xy2R2lVHfyNWuksybbpbGA== [fileUNF]
Recent studies on global performance indicators (GPIs) reveal the distinct power that nonstate actors can accrue and exercise in world politics. How and when does this happen? Using a mixed-methods approach, we examine the impact of the Aid Transparency Index (ATI), an annual rating and rankings index produced by the small UK-based NGO Publish What... |

Smith, Gregory, 2019, "Replication Data for: Secret but Constrained: The Impact of Elite Opposition on Covert Operations", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/FSNEZY, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:y5457RsPYFbLMbZ4nXmkKQ== [fileUNF]
Recent international relations scholarship has argued that political elites constrain the use of military force by democracies. Despite the persuasiveness of this research, scholars have largely ignored elite dynamics’ ability to constrain the initiation of covert operations. This omission is consequential because scholars of US foreign policy ofte... |

Bisbee, James; Hollyer, James R.; Rosendorff, B. Peter; Vreeland, James Raymond, 2019, "Replication Data for: The Millennium Development Goals and Education: Accountability and Substitution in Global Assessment", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/PDM9UH, Harvard Dataverse, V1
Precise international metrics and assessments may induce governments to alter policies in pursuit of more favorable assessments according to these metrics. In this paper, we explore a secondary effect of global performance indicators (GPIs). Insofar as governments have finite resources and make trade-offs in public goods investments, a GPI that pre... |

Gautam Nair; Nicholas Sambanis, 2019, "Replication Data for: Violence Exposure and Ethnic Identification: Evidence from Kashmir", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/8EHQWP, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:ThzhS8muvcVNR1VLJxrjIA== [fileUNF]
This article studies the conditions that lead peripheral minorities to identify with the state, their ethnic group, or neighboring countries. We contribute to research on separatism and irredentism by examining how violence, psychological distance, and national status determine identification. The analysis uses data from a novel experiment that ran... |

Webster, Kaitlyn; Chen, Chong; Beardsley, Kyle, 2019, "Replication Data for: Conflict, Peace, and the Evolution of Women's Empowerment", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/WOED4N, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:OExZcyNXYCoez38AXV5SGg== [fileUNF]
How do periods of conflict and peace shape women’s empowerment around the world? While existing studies have demonstrated that gender inequalities contribute to the propensity for armed conflict, we consider how the anticipation and realization of armed conflict shape women’s opportunities for influence in society. Some scholars have pointed to the... |

Sommerer, Thomas; Tallberg, Jonas, 2019, "Replication Data for: Diffusion Across International Organizations: Connectivity and Convergence", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/KYBEM4, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:WpWk/Wr9a3tlPKCE2bAnMg== [fileUNF]
While extensive research shows that policies and institutions spread across states through processes of diffusion, we know little about diffusion among international organizations (IOs). We develop a novel approach for the study of diffusion among IOs. This approach consists of three components: a theoretical focus on connectivity among IOs as path... |

Zhang, Anna; McNamee, Lachlan, 2019, "Replication Data for: Demographic Engineering and International Conflict: Evidence from China and the Former USSR", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/JXGZKX, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:QRa0BUmF0hba5vNO10O/3Q== [fileUNF]
When and where do states coercively alter their internal demography? This paper builds a theory that predicts under what conditions states alter the demographic “facts on the ground” by resettling and expelling ethno-national populations. We predict that, under particular scope conditions, states will employ demographic engineering to shore up cont... |

Blair, Robert, 2019, "Replication Data for: International Intervention and the Rule of Law: Evidence from Liberia", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/W03YWD, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:yz7G29q5IHs7EGLX700dXw== [fileUNF]
What are the effects of international intervention on the rule of law after civil war? Rule of law requires not only that state authorities abide by legal limits on their power, but also that citizens rely on state laws and institutions to adjudicate disputes. Using an original survey and list experiment in Liberia, I show that exposure to the UN M... |
