Cavazza, Nicoletta; Corbetta Piergiorgio, 2016, "Replication Data for: The Political Meaning of Dining Out:", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/WDQJCO, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:psbNnExRebK4dk97kUifnQ== [fileUNF]
The debate arisen around the weakening of the traditional cleavages’ heuristic power in explaining vote suggests considering the role of lifestyles in designing politically meaningful social aggregates. We investigated the relationship between lifestyle and voting behavior, establishing the degree to which this relationship traces the effect of the... |

Cassani, Andrea, 2016, "Replication Data for: Was It Worth the Trouble? Limited Competition and Citizen Wellbeing under Authoritarian Rule", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/TWA4NM, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:2LzcDblgf06Ee8L3GpVvhg== [fileUNF]
The last part of 20th century saw the collapse of a dramatic number of dictatorships. Rather than democracy, several of these transitions brought regimes where limited political competition coexists with persistently authoritarian practices. The diffusion of this form of authoritarianism in the developing world raises several questions about its br... |

Dassonneville, Ruth; Claes, Ellen; Lewis-Beck, Michael S., 2016, "Replication Data for: Punishing Local Incumbents for the Local Economy. Economic Voting in the 2012 Belgian Municipal Elections", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/AGTZ36, Harvard Dataverse, V2, UNF:6:j7yrL7WCtkPF4joG5jrlQA== [fileUNF]
After decennia of research on economic voting, it is now established that the state of the economy affects voting behaviour. Nevertheless, this conclusion is the result of a focus on predominantly national-level economies and national-level elections. In this paper, we show that at a local level as well, mechanisms of accountability linked to the e... |

Memoli, Vincenzo; Grassi, Davide, 2016, "Replication Data for: Democracy, Political Partisanship and State Capacity in Latin America", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/NJRZ7I, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:zBj4TMuPi+y2AMq/XHTIgQ== [fileUNF]
Abstract Social scientist have often neglected, or not sufficiently explored, the role of political factors in shaping state capacity. When they did, they mostly focussed on key institutional features of political regimes, especially democracy. In this paper we broaden this approach: besides the institutional traits of democracy, we analyse how gov... |

Musella, Fortunato, 2015, "Replication Data for: Personal Leaders and Party Change. Italy in a Comparative Perspective", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/HTHO4V, Harvard Dataverse, V1
Party leaders have become more powerful and autonomous actors in recent years, by developing a direct and personal relationship with citizens. As anticipated in the United States (Lowi 1985), the rise of the “personal leader” seems to have occurred in many European democracies, both in old parties and in more recently formed parties, with a widespr... |

De Sousa, Luís; Moriconi, Marcelo, 2015, "Replication Data for: The discursive use of the concept of ‘corruption’ in parliamentary debates during the Portuguese Estado Novo (1935–74)", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/XJ6BXM, Harvard Dataverse, V1
Corruption is deviant behaviour from legal and social norms, observable in both dictatorships and democracies, and salient in different periods of the history of mankind. Studying corruption in dictatorships is particularly challenging due to the fact that freedom of expression is censored and there is little (if any) reliable information about the... |

Maggini, Nicola; Emanuele, Vincenzo, 2015, "Replication Data for: Contextual effects on individual voting behaviour: the impact of party system nationalization in Europe", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/2CJUAX, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:kpbOm41Bd6+HlvmS5CGf8w== [fileUNF]
This article has the purpose to assess if and how party system nationalization affects individual voting behaviour. Previous studies on party system nationalization have focused on systemic processes, exclusively dealing with aggregate data. The authors address this topic from a new empirical perspective, arguing that party system nationalization c... |

Conti, Nicolò; Memoli, Vincenzo, 2015, "Replication Data for: Show the money first! Recent public attitudes towards the EU in Italy", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/3CIIM0, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:rhIWniTyME5PNnJscUWHqw== [fileUNF]
In the recent past, attitudes towards the EU have become problematic in many member states. Even those countries that traditionally were more optimistic have actually experienced important declines in their popular backing of the European integration process. We examine the public attitudes towards the EU that have recently emerged in Italy, a coun... |

Iyengar, Shanto; Barisione, Mauro, 2015, "Replication Data for: Non-verbal cues as a test of gender and race bias in politics: the Italian case", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/ZMZDHG, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:Dw0ylRHdLRVUzMCKykiXDg== [fileUNF]
Gender and race biases persist in western democracies, with male and white candidates still being the norm. Voters may be more inclined to express sexist and racist attitudes in countries with a traditionally male-dominated political system and a majority-white population. As sexism and racism are notoriously difficult to document, and because many... |
