Porter, Rachel; Treul, Sarah A., 2023, "Replication Data for: Evaluating (In)Experience in Congressional Elections", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/CYFIDH, Harvard Dataverse, V1
From the 1980s to the mid 2010s, three-quarters of newly elected members to the U.S. House of Representatives had previous elected experience; only half of freshmen elected from 2016 to 2020 held prior office. In this paper, we investigate emergence- and success-driven explanations for the declining proportion of experienced officeholders entering... |
Beek, Maël van; Lopate, Michael Z.; Goodhart, Andrew; Peterson, David A.; Edgerton, Jared; Xiong, Haoming; Alam, Maryum; Tiglay, Leyla; Kent, Daniel; Braumoeller, Bear F., 2023, "Replication Data for: Hierarchy and War", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/J2MNEU, Harvard Dataverse, V1
Scholars have written extensively about hierarchical international order, on the one hand, and war on the other, but surprisingly little work systematically explores the connection between the two. This disconnect is all the more striking given that empirical studies have found a strong relationship between the two. We provide a generative computat... |
Dancygier, Rafaela; Dehdari, Sirus H.; Laitin, David D.; Marbach, Moritz; Vernby, Kåre, 2023, "Replication Data for: Emigration and Radical Right Populism", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/FYVP3W, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:jn4hTATcTNqIs1/H35tCKw== [fileUNF]
An extensive literature links the rise of populist radical right (PRR) parties to immigration. We argue that another demographic trend is also significant: Emigration. The departure of citizens due to internal and international emigration is a major phenomenon affecting elections via two complementary mechanisms. Emigration alters the composition o... |
Fong, Christian; Lowande, Kenneth; Rauh, Adam, 2023, "Replication Data for: Expertise Acquisition in Congress", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/VPPEAW, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:XBUJoHxsS8sgX72QEEB5OQ== [fileUNF]
According to many, the U.S. Congress desperately needs reform because its capacity to govern has declined. Congressional capacity cannot be understood without examining how the expertise available to members is fostered or discouraged. We present a theory of expertise acquisition and apply it to the problem of overseeing the Executive. We use this... |
Mailhot, Cameron, 2023, "Replication Data for: How UN Peacekeeping Missions Enforce Peace Agreements", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/NBIKED, Harvard Dataverse, V1
How do UN peacekeeping missions enforce peace agreements, and what effect do higher rates of enforcement have on agreement implementation and conflict termination? Peace agreement enforcement forms a central component of peacekeeping effectiveness, yet missions are often mandated to enforce a minority of agreement provisions, and they vary across b... |
Jacob, Marc S., 2023, "Replication Data for: Citizens as a Democratic Safeguard? The Sequence of Sanctioning Elite Attacks on Democracy", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/XERHRF, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:iPM3Q2SAQGTIRz9ZYUSXfA== [fileUNF]
In many elections worldwide, citizens support politicians who have undermined democracy while in office. Why? For citizens to safeguard democratic institutions, they must not only disapprove of a politician’s undemocratic conduct but also be willing to retract support from her at the next election. This paper examines under which conditions citizen... |
Abramson, Yehonatan; Menon, Anil; Gitlin, Abir, 2023, "Replication Data for: Whose Critique Matters? The Effects of Critic Identity and Audience on Public Opinion", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/SLNPAB, Harvard Dataverse, V1
When evaluating the impact of naming and shaming on public opinion regarding human rights, existing scholarship focuses on messages coming from ingroup or outgroup critics. Diaspora critics, increasingly vocal and visible in recent years, occupy an in-between identity. What, if any, is the impact of criticism coming from such critics? We address th... |
de Benedictis-Kessner, Justin; Jones, Daniel; Warshaw, Christopher, 2023, "Replication Data for: How Partisanship in Cities Influences Housing Policy", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/TEPRY2, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:EVJ7LQ5MMlRgcZpyFH8fNA== [fileUNF]
Housing policy is one of the most important areas of local politics. Yet little is known about how local legislatures and executives make housing policy decisions and how their elections shape policy in this important realm. We leverage housing policy data and a new data source of 15,621 city council elections and 3,261 mayoral elections in large c... |
Hopkins, Daniel, 2023, "Replication Data for: Unsubscribed and Undemanding: Partisanship and the Minimal Effects of a Field Experiment Encouraging Local News Consumption", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/D6CH6C, Harvard Dataverse, V1
Local newspapers convey extensive subnational political information but have dwindling audiences. In a nationalized and polarized information environment, can online interventions increase state/local news consumption and with what effects? We explore this question via a pre-registered experiment randomizing Pennsylvania residents (n=5,059) to stag... |
Goyal, Tanushree, 2023, "Replication Data for: Local Political Representation as a Pathway to Power: A Natural Experiment in India", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/9XPV4I, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:8IwLP+cr33iSX9sdT6wpXA== [fileUNF]
What drives the career advancement of women politicians in opaque selection environments where party activists hold sway? I argue that women’s higher presence in local politics not only improves party elite responsiveness to greater talent supply (topdown mechanism), but also expands women’s capacity to organize grassroots activist networks to infl... |
