Wang, Erik; Chen, Joy; Zhang, Xiaoming, 2024, "Replication Data for: From Powerholders to Stakeholders: State-Building with Elite Compensation in Early Medieval China", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/AU1MVC, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:0sCkpYKR+BDBSk7uTAt1MA== [fileUNF]
How do rulers soften resistance by local powerholders to state-building efforts? This paper highlights a strategy of compensation, where elites receive government offices in exchange for relinquishing their localist interests, and become uprooted and integrated into the national political system as stakeholders. We explore this strategy in the cont... |
Núñez, Lucas, 2024, "Encouraging Loyalty and Defection: The Impact of Campaigns on Tactical Voting in Britain", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/UEYVO1, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:qMerDlJzxoRtcpR/123EXg== [fileUNF]
I study the impact of party campaigns on tactical voting, focusing on voters with tactical incentives. Focusing on three UK Elections, I exploit panel data within each election to address endogeneity in party behavior, which would otherwise bias the estimates of campaign effects. My findings show that party contacts during campaigns have an influen... |
Grossman, Guy; Zonszein, Stephanie, 2024, "Replication Data for Voted In, Standing Out: Public Response to Immigrants' Political Accession", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/IJ2DW4, Harvard Dataverse, V1
How do dominant-group natives react to immigrants' political integration? We argue that ethnic minority immigrants winning political office makes natives feel threatened, triggering animosity. We test this dynamic across the 2010--2019 UK general elections, using hate crime police records, public opinion data, and text data from over 500,000 region... |
Vishwanath, Arjun, 2024, "Replication Data for: Race, Legislative Speech, and Symbolic Representation in Congress", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/6RL6ID, Harvard Dataverse, V1
We know little about the extent to which racial minorities are symbolically represented by members of Congress. This stands in contrast to a wealth of research analyzing the extent to which minorities are substantively and descriptively represented. This article provides the most comprehensive analysis of symbolic representation to date. Using data... |
Sahn, Alexander, 2024, "Replication Data for: Public Comment and Public Policy", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/WZOC7H, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:NQVwQg09SPldDq7gFcerGg== [fileUNF]
Is public policy responsive to demographically and ideologically unrepresentative comments given at public meetings? I investigate this possibility using a novel dataset of over 40,000 comments made at the San Francisco Planning Commission between 1998 and 2021, matched to information about proposed developments discussed in hearings and administra... |
Slapin, Jonathan, 2024, "Replication Data for: Gender and Reactions to Speeches in German Parliamentary Debates", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/GODCXP, Harvard Dataverse, V1
Are non-verbal reactions during parliamentary debate gendered? Do male and female Members of Parliament (MPs) experience applause or jeering differently? In short, yes, and the gendered nature of a speech matters. Using an original corpus of over 544,000 speeches given in German state parliaments, we first estimate the gendered nature of parliament... |
Thrall, Calvin, 2024, "Replication Data for: Informational Lobbying and Commercial Diplomacy", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/SQSTSC, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:MTV8qxeaa8C36wLEE6V5hA== [fileUNF]
What determines the content of bilateral diplomacy? I argue that the foreign policy issues prioritized by specific embassies are influenced by their diplomats’ sources of information. For evidence, I study the proliferation of foreign branches of the American Chamber of Commerce (AmChams)—private interest groups composed of U.S. firms that are oper... |
Castanho Silva, Bruno; Pullan, Danielle; Wäckerle, Jens, 2024, "Replication Data for: Blending In or Standing Out? Gendered Political Communication in 24 Democracies", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/EAKKZT, Harvard Dataverse, V1
Women in male-dominated organizations often must adopt more stereotypical masculine traits to advance within those hierarchies. While politics, historically male-dominated, should induce women to blend in, increasing numbers of women in parliaments may give women the opportunity to stand out by not adopting masculine style. This paper investigates... |
Garfias, Francisco; Sellars, Emily A., 2024, "Replication Data for: Fiscal Legibility and State Development: Theory and Evidence from Colonial Mexico", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/WGT8QV, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:vBexjikqmMxOI2ii4fsXRg== [fileUNF]
We examine how fiscal legibility, the ability of central authorities to observe local conditions for the purposes of taxation, shapes political centralization and state development. When rulers lack information about the periphery, they may benefit from ceding autonomy to tax-collecting intermediaries to encourage fiscal performance. As information... |
Stoetzer, Lukas F.; Xiang, Zhou; Steenbergen, Marco, 2024, "Replication Data for: Causal Inference with Latent Outcomes", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/UZFWT7, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:ItCyfu5R4p0Iqa/DwtS/yA== [fileUNF]
While causal inference has become front and center in empirical political science, we know little about how to analyze causality with latent outcomes, such as political values, beliefs, and attitudes. In this article, we develop a framework for defining, identifying, and estimating the causal effect of an observed treatment on a latent outcome, whi... |
