Erlich, Aaron; Gans-Morse, Jordan, 2024, "Replication Data for: Can Norm-Based Information Campaigns Reduce Corruption?", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/RIBWNJ, Harvard Dataverse, V1
Can norm-based information campaigns reduce corruption? Such campaigns use messaging about how people typically behave (descriptive norms) or ought to behave (injunctive norms). Drawing on survey and lab experiments in Ukraine, we unpack and evaluate the distinct effects of these two types of social norms. Four findings emerge: First, injunctive-no... |

Yoon, Hohyun, 2024, "Replication Data for: Anger Expressions and Coercive Credibility in International Crises", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/87TSER, Harvard Dataverse, V1
Why are some threats more credible than others? I argue that leaders’ anger expressions are a previously underappreciated source of coercive credibility. Specifically, leaders who express anger appear more credible because targets believe they are less sensitive to the costs of conflict. I test this argument through quantitative analysis of a novel... |

Cremaschi, Simone; Rettl, Paula; Cappelluti, Marco; De Vries, Catherine E., 2024, "Replication Data for: Geographies of Discontent: Public Service Deprivation and the Rise of the Far Right in Italy", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/I3VHZK, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:vf5inWwQcVjmVw4JZNWKrA== [fileUNF]
Electoral support for far-right parties is often linked to geographies of discontent. We argue that public service deprivation, defined as reduced access to public services, plays an important role in explaining these patterns. By exploiting an Italian reform that reduced access to public services in municipalities with fewer than 5,000 residents,... |

Trivin, Pedro; Kyriacou, Andreas, 2024, "Replication Data for: Populism and the Rule of Law: The Importance of Institutional Legacies", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/LUXWMV, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:kMDEe1pECwvOhzmZ5/U65w== [fileUNF]
Existing work sees populist governments undermining the rule of law because they seek to dismantle institutional constraints on their personalistic plebiscitarian rule. We argue that populist rulers pose a greater threat to legal impartiality, equality, and compliance when they face a legacy of weak rule of law. We find empirical support for this a... |
Schaeffer, Merlin; Krakowski, Krzysztof; Olsen, Asmus Leth, 2024, "Replication Data for: Correcting Misperceptions about Ethno-Racial Discrimination: The Limits of Evidence-Based Awareness Raising to Promote Support for Equal-Treatment Policies", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/HRUXYI, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:0Pp776DMpkzDnV5Bki6dsQ== [fileUNF]
The disadvantages experienced by minorities and lack of societal remedies are partly attributable to native-majority citizens’ limited awareness of minority hardships. We investigate whether informing citizens about field-experimental audits on ethno-racial discrimination increases their recognition of the issue and support for equal-treatment poli... |

Gaudette, Jennifer, 2024, "Replication Data for Polarization in Police Union Politics", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/JYJLUB, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:EyTVLddRr7CAvYOeBnFtmQ== [fileUNF]
Although most local elections are officially non-partisan, a debate exists regarding how much ideology matters in local politics. I test the effects of national polarization toward policing at the local level using a conjoint survey experiment and novel observational data. I find that police union endorsements send clear ideological signals about m... |
Buzas, Zoltan; Bassan-Nygate, Lotem, 2024, "Replication Data for: Race, Shaming, and International Human Rights", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/NWDZJB, Harvard Dataverse, V1
Can Human Rights Organizations (HROs) shame governments without fueling racism against diasporas or appearing racist? To what extent can shamed governments recover public support lost to shaming by accusing their critics of racism? Employing two US survey experiments involving 6,739 respondents and eleven prominent HRO interviews, we offer three no... |
Kogan, Vladimir; Markarian, G. Agustin; Hajnal, Zoltan, 2024, "Replication Data for: Who Wins When? Election Timing and Descriptive Representation", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/DFZKB6, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:3+R7c+Q0dZMvFt8R/v33aA== [fileUNF]
Copy directlyWe examine how the timing of local elections affects the success of minority candidates, who remain woefully underrepresented in public office. We build on research showing that concurrent elections narrow racial gaps in voter turnout and leverage changes in the timing of local elections in California. Our analysis shows that filling l... |

Ban, Pamela; Kaslovsky, Jaclyn, 2024, "Replication Data for: Local Orientation in the U.S. House of Representatives", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/DEDZRZ, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:QRAaK0k9/RGuAvbYEMXAEA== [fileUNF]
What drives legislators to emphasize local issues in a nationalized setting? Although the representation literature has highlighted why legislators present themselves as district- or nationally-oriented in constituent-facing activities, research remains limited on this behavior within Congress. We leverage congressional speech to provide evidence o... |

Dancygier, Rafaela; Wiedemann, Andreas, 2024, "Replication Data for: The Financialization of Housing and Its Political Consequences", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/PY0NKM, Harvard Dataverse, V1
Institutional investors in residential real estate have become targets of political backlash against unaffordable housing. We argue that this backlash is not only about economic issues such as rising rents; it reflects a fundamental rejection of "financialized capitalism" that turns housing from a basic need into a speculative asset. Using novel ge... |
