Mark Schafer; Stephen G. Walker, 2007, "Replication data for: Democratic Leaders and the Democratic Peace: The Operational Codes of Tony Blair and Bill Clinton", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/NOCNU0, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:3:dCaYC7+C8YELRNKVVJL1GQ== [fileUNF]
Do the beliefs of leaders make a significant difference in determining if democracies are peaceful and explaining why democracies (almost) never fight one another? Our comparisons of Prime Minister Tony Blair and President Bill Clinton reveal that both leaders view democracies as more friendly than nondemocracies, and they have significantly less c... |

Eric Neumayer, 2007, "Replication data for: Bogus Refugees? The Determinants of Asylum Migration to Western Europe", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/XSWKAW, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:3:55b/t2KM40+q3xK1nma4Ww== [fileUNF]
This article analyzes the determinants of asylum migration to Western Europe. Potential asylum seekers balance the costs of staying versus the costs of migrating. Estimation results confirm that economic hardship and economic discrimination against ethnic minorities lead to higher flows of asylum seekers. However, political oppression, human rights... |

Navin Bapat, 2007, "Replication data for: State Bargaining with Transnational Terror Groups", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/ED3YHK, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:3:s/S3WmbDYWSpLPr+8PTFUA== [fileUNF]
Several policymakers argue against negotiating with transnational terrorists because of the inability of terrorist groups to form credible commitments. To succeed in negotiation, terrorists must convince target governments that they are credible bargaining partners. This paper explores how constraints from host states affect the ability of terroris... |

Benjamin O. Fordham; Victor Asal, 2007, "Replication data for: Billiard Balls or Snowflakes? Major Power Prestige and the International Diffusion of Institutions and Practices", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/XCCACE, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:3:ylnVBtpOONG1odIw0cYMew== [fileUNF]
Do the institutions and practices of the major powers influence those of other states? Many international relations theorists have argued that these powerful states' prestige allows them to define what is normatively acceptable. This paper tests the influence of the internal characteristics of major powers on democratization, the extension of forma... |

Glen Biglaiser; Karl Derouen, Jr., 2007, "Replication data for: Sovereign Bond Ratings and Neoliberalism in Latin America", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/OEMQGQ, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:3:SZwgYevCZJArWsWO5rERjw== [fileUNF]
The importance of credit rating agencies (CRAs) in rating sovereign bonds has grown as developing countries increasingly issue bonds to attract foreign capital. Although in their methodologies CRAs claim that the initiation of neoliberal reforms influences bond ratings, given the secrecy surrounding ratings, it is unclear what impact reforms actual... |

Henrik Urdal, 2007, "Replication data for: A Clash of Generations? Youth Bulges and Political Violence", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/O352HJ, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:3:NVD+mGiw40gcdXa//WSrGA== [fileUNF]
It has frequently been suggested that exceptionally large youth cohorts, the so-called "youth bulges," make countries more susceptible to political violence. Within two prominent theoretical frameworks in the study of civil war, youth bulges are argued to potentially increase both opportunities and motives for political violence. This claim is empi... |

Benjamin O. Fordham; Thomas C. Walker, 2007, "Replication data for: Kantian Liberalism, Regime Type and Military Resource Allocation: Do Democracies Spend Less?", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/CQ1VB2, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:3:sbteUtTWkkxcymGsVzZZUQ== [fileUNF]
In this paper, we evaluate the liberal claim that democratic states devote fewer resources to their militaries. Low military spending is thought to avert conflict spirals and release more resources to fund domestic programs. While prominent in many liberal international relations theories, most notably in Immanuel Kant's, this proposition has recei... |
John S. Ahlquist, 2007, "Replication data for: Economic Policy, Institutions, and Capital Flows: Portfolio and Direct Investment Flows in Developing Countries", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/07JMQS, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:3:BCykj5ZD6O5cDjwinHdwOw== [fileUNF]
Scholars examining the cross-national mobility of capital have followed two distinct paths. Economists tend to focus on the determinants and economic effects of cross-country capital movements while political scientists largely concentrate on the political impact of capital mobility. This study fills an important gap in the literature by examining... |

Ames H. Lebovic; Erik Voeten, 2007, "Replication data for: The Politics of Shame: The Condemnation of Country Human Rights Practices in the UNCHR", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/V6G2CC, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:3:HMr489M73uifDg6PfofetA== [fileUNF]
Although the United Nations Commission on Human Rights served as the primary forum in which governments publicly named and shamed others for abusing their citizens, the practices of the commission have been largely ignored by political scientists. To address that deficiency, this study analyzes the actions of the commission and its members' voting... |

One of the disputed consequences of global economic integration is the possible effect that foreign economic liberalization exerts on social cohesion. Proponents of commercial liberalism see stabilization as an indirect consequence of growing economic interdependence, while globalization critics are much more skeptical. They expect, at least during... |
