Eric Reinhardt; Kurt Dassel, 2007, "Replication data for: Domestic Strife and the Initiation of Violence at Home and Abroad", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/FLLSWH, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:3:HY9zS92Tc/6VAlZThd5cOg== [fileUNF]
The idea of diversionary war, i.e., that leaders may seek to alleviate strife at home by initiating conflict abroad, is an intuitively appealing explanation in many cases. But the extensive empirical literature on the topic has generated mostly negative or mixed support for the diversionary war argument. We argue that the results have been unsuppor... |

Eric Reinhardt, 2007, "Replication data for: Tying Hands without a Rope: Rational Domestic Response to International Institutional Constraints", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/WJFMRR, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:3:RyU7U+U41Wo34zarbIe7nw== [fileUNF]
Observers often argue that international institutions can promote policy reform by serving as a commitment device, tying the hands of national leaders who would otherwise be unable to reform due to opposition in the legislature, for instance. Can a leader tie hands without a rope i.e., if the domestic opposition is rational and believes the inst... |

Eric Reinhardt; Marc Busch, 2007, "Replication data for: Developing Countries and GATT/WTO Dispute Settlement", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/DYDOIQ, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:3:pVCWe46Yoauetdshe8q4bA== [fileUNF]
It has long been observed that developing countries made scant use of dispute settlement under the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT). Less clear are the reasons for this. Most observers insist that the various GATT reforms that were intended to help developing countries failed to insulate them from the “power politics” of the system (Ku... |

Eric Reinhardt, 2007, "Replication data for: Adjudication without Enforcement in GATT Disputes", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/7YHMC5, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:3:AUAk3cCweFKc5lgSzbIHnQ== [fileUNF]
The outcomes of disputes under the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) exhibit a puzzling selection effect. Defendants are more likely to concede to plaintiffs' demands prior to GATT judgments than afterwards, despite GATT's lack of enforcement power. Yet why would states plea bargain if they know they can spurn contrary rulings? To addre... |

Eric Reinhardt; Çaglar Özden, 2007, "Replication data for: The Perversity of Preferences: GSP and Developing Country Trade Policies,1976-2000", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/JUWF0P, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:3:dCIdYQB9k9u0WVp+/4XoIQ== [fileUNF]
Developed countries maintain special tariff preferences, namely the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP), for imports from developing countries. Critics highlight the underachieving nature of such preferences, but we know little about how they affect recipients’ own trade policies. We conduct the first examination of this question, using a panel... |

Eric Reinhardt; Marc Busch, 2007, "Replication data for: Geography, International Trade, and Political Mobilization in U.S. Industries", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/KSJY7P, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:3:4iMYjzw7nztvwGDwMcSdEQ== [fileUNF]
From studies of so-called "Silicon Valley effects" to regional economic development, the spatial proximity of firms has shed new light on some of the most enduring puzzles in business and economics. Yet few studies have examined whether spatial proximity leads firms with shared interests to be more active in politics. We take up this question, exam... |
Eric Reinhardt; Edward Mansfield, 2007, "Replication data for: Multilateral Determinants of Regionalism: The Effects of GATT/WTO on the Formation of Preferential Trading Arrangements", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/KAP0NQ, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:3:AycFGyW7b9oWY2PEAEPUUw== [fileUNF]
Preferential trading arrangements (PTAs) have spread widely over the past fifty years. During the same era, multilateral openness has grown to unprecedented heights, spurred by the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) and its successor, the World Trade Organization (WTO). If the cornerstone of the manifestly successful multilateral regime... |

Eric Reinhardt, 2007, "Replication data for: Aggressive Multilateralism: The Determinants of GATT/WTO Dispute Initiation, 1948-1998", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/5TYK6H, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:3:Y0AlIE0S4EqvitW53OOHGA== [fileUNF]
Why do states initiate trade disputes under the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) or its successor, the World Trade Organization (WTO)? Existing studies suggest that democracies should either experience and litigate fewer trade conflicts or at least resolve them more cooperatively. Other works contend that improvements in the trade disp... |

Does the geographic concentration of industry ‘matter’ outside the United States? Observers have long speculated that while geographically concentrated industries may be influential in American politics; this is probably not the case in countries where the electorate votes more as a national constituency. Others disagree, urging that clustered indu... |

Eric Reinhardt, 2007, "Replication data for: Posturing Parliaments: Ratification, Uncertainty, and International Bargaining", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/T0YZT2, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:3:ez3zjqtuimFrLG49oxcjcw== [fileUNF]
Proposed international agreements generally need to be explicitly or implicitly ratified by domestic agents, most often legislatures. In these circumstances, legislators will attempt to capitalize on uncertainty about their intentions using costless signaling, or cheap talk. How credible is such parliamentary posturing? Existing studies varyingly d... |
