Edward N. Muller; Mitchell A. Seligson, 2007, "Replication data for: Inequality and Insurgency", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/ITMYUG, Harvard Dataverse, V2, UNF:3:rS5zrLw2wc5qAUtv96xN2g== [fileUNF]
Maldistribution of land in agrarian societies is commonly thought to be an important precondition of mass political violence and revolution. Others argue that because of the difficulty of mobilizing rural populations for political protest, land maldistribution is irrelevant except as part of an inegalitarian distribution of income nationwide. These... |
Kristin M. Bakke; Xun Cao; John O’Loughlin; Michael D. Ward, 2007, "Replication data for: Social Distance in Bosnia and the North Caucasus Region of Russia", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/5SA1WW, Harvard Dataverse, V2
We examine ethnic divisions in conflict-affected and post-conflict societies. Conventional wisdom tells us that societies that have experienced violent struggles in which individuals of different ethnic groups have (been) mobilized against each other are likely to become ossified along ethnic lines. Indeed, both policy-makers and scholars often ass... |
Kristian Skrede Gleditsch; Michael D. Ward, 2007, "Replication data for: War and Peace in Space and Time: The Role of Democratization", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/4GOCQK, Harvard Dataverse, V2, UNF:3:p2R4NP7hjFqtyWcSKatbpA== [fileUNF]
Democratization reduces the risk of war, but uneven transitions toward democracy can increase the probability of war. Using country-level data on democratization and international war from the period 1875-1996, we develop a general additive statistical model reassessing this claim in light of temporal and spatial dependence. We also develop a new g... |
Michael D. Ward; John O’Loughlin; Kristin M. Bakke; Xun Cao, 2007, "Replication data for: Inter-ethnic Trust in Conflict-Affected Societies: Bosnia and Herzegovina and the North Caucasus Region of Russia", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/QR3FCJ, Harvard Dataverse, V2
We examine inter-ethnic trust in Bosnia and the North Caucasus region of Russia, two ethnically diverse, post-communist societies, which at times have been racked by inter-ethnic and/or separatist conflicts. We survey attitudes and preferences towards the contemporary situation, revealing that there is substantial inter-ethnic trust in the North Ca... |

Michael D. Ward; Randolph Siverson; Xun Cao, 2008, "Replication data for: Disputes, Democracies, & Dependencies: A Re-examination of the Kantian Peace", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/NYHKQL, Harvard Dataverse, V2
Militarized interstate disputes are widely thought to be less likely among democratic countries that have high levels of trade and extensive participation in international organizations. We re-examine this broad finding of the Kantian peace literature in the context of a model that incorporates the high degree of dependency among countries. Based o... |
