Eric Keels; Justin Kinney, 2018, "Replication Data for: “Any Press is Good Press?”: Rebel Political Wings, Media Freedom, and Terrorism in Civil Wars", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/E1UVAW, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:CXYOCwcxCIb/nZIz/PvW/Q== [fileUNF]
As part of a recent effort to bridge the studies of terrorism and civil war, new research has begun to emerge on the use of terrorism by rebel groups as a strategy of war. Building on these findings, we examine the role of affiliated political wings in shaping the use of terrorism by rebel groups during civil wars. We contend that the presence of a... |

Gina Lei Miller; Ryan M. Welch; Andrew J. Vonasch, 2018, "Replication Data for: The Psychological Effects of State Socialization: IGO Membership Loss and Respect for Human Rights", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/G76EDS, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:9TnLK2iZBWRk7ASELzC1Xg== [fileUNF]
We present an interdisciplinary theory that considers how loss of membership in inter- national organizations affects states’ human rights practices. Drawing mostly from social psychology and international relations research, we argue that states are socialized into the international community through a process of social influence, whereby they are... |

Hannes Weber, 2018, "Age Structure and Political Violence: A Re-Assessment of the ‘Youth Bulge’ Hypothesis", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/2LY2WB, Harvard Dataverse, V1
A popular hypothesis in international studies states that a ‘youth bulge’ – an age pyramid dominated by large cohorts between 15 and 29 years of age – increases the risk of political violence. However, empirical evidence on this link remains inconclusive to date. In this article, we systematically assess the youth effect using new data from 183 cou... |

Akisato Suzuki, 2018, "Replication Data for: Ethnicity, Political Survival, and the Exchange of Nationalist Foreign Policy", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/OQPGPZ, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:qVa1wsIJOzjWQeH1dzgWEQ== [fileUNF]
How does leadership’s desire for political survival in ethnically heterogeneous democracies affect the probability of states exchanging nationalist foreign policy? I define nationalist foreign policy as foreign policy that aims to fulfil national self-governance using a civic or ethnic frame. I argue that civic-nationalist policy disputing the terr... |

David H. Bearce; Andrew F. Hart, 2018, "Replication Data for: Labor Migration Numbers and Rights: Do They Trade Off or Advance Together?", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/KPKZTM, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:YYp5UXPmMIepsz9CX9d3qA== [fileUNF]
This article reconsiders the argument that as labor immigration policy opens, it must also become more restrictive in terms of immigrant rights. After discussing this tradeoff logic, positing a negative relationship between external (numbers) and internal (rights) labor migration policy, it then extends the underlying political model to show that w... |

R. Urbatsch, 2018, "Replication Data for: Immigrant Out-Groups and Voting against Free Trade", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/O3KPOQ, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:I4KcyeNsrEX3ku+a8CY/eA== [fileUNF]
Resistance to trade and demands for protectionist policy can derive from social as well as economic factors. A sense of cultural threat surrounding immigrants, especially immigrants visibly from groups that are widely stigmatized among the local population, may potentially stimulate such recoiling from exposure to the world. Voting patterns in the... |

Jana Krause; Werner Krause; Piia Bränfors, 2018, "Replication Data for: Women’s Participation in Peace Negotiations and the Durability of Peace", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/LNMEXL, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:9Q0XQSRjx1NU8zKWJlHDWA== [fileUNF]
There is an emerging consensus that women’s participation in peace negotiations contributes to the quality and durability of peace after civil war. However, to date, this proposition has remained empirically untested. Moreover, how women’s participation may contribute to durable peace has not been systematically explored. This article uses a mixed... |

Vito D'Orazio; Idean Salehyan, 2018, "Replication Data for: Who is a Terrorist? Ethnicity, Group Affiliation, and Understandings of Political Violence", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/8N79E6, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:OAl/UJPi8IehWxmEGGgiGw== [fileUNF]
What does the American public label as "terrorism?" How do people think about the factors motivating violence, and in turn, the policies that are favored? Using ingroup and outgroup dynamics, we argue that the terrorist label is more readily applied to Arab-Americans than Whites, and to members of militant groups. Moreover, people attribute differe... |

Mi Hwa Hong; Gary Uzonyi, 2018, "Replication Data for: Deeper Commitment to Human Rights Treaties: Signaling and Investment Risk Perception", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/RXWV0T, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:HD2U53Gd7nIRUWsfJ5+F0w== [fileUNF]
Why do some leaders make deeper commitments to human rights treaties (HRAs) by consenting to receive extra monitoring of complaints or communications from individual citizens? Extant theory suggests leaders join HRAs for tangible benefits. However, empirical support for this argument is mixed. To address this mismatch, we approach this question fro... |

Elise Must; Siri Aas Rustad, 2018, "Replication Data for: ‘Mtwara will be the new Dubai’: Dashed expectations, grievances and civil unrest in Tanzania", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/HHWFBA, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:BbhsEm1+1bNH4D6wMS6gRg== [fileUNF]
When does inequality lead to conflict? Despite recent studies highlighting the effects of group exclusion, this question has not been fully answered. We argue that objective group inequality is not sufficient to fuel unrest. Structural inequalities need to be perceived as unfair, and become grievances, in order to spark mobilization. While most con... |
