title: Yes, Human Rights Practices Are Improving Over Time

description: To document human rights, monitoring organizations establish a standard of accountability, or a baseline set of expectations that states ought to meet in order to be considered respectful of human rights. If the standard of accountability has meaningfully changed then the categorized variables from human rights documents will mask real improvements. Cingranelli and Filippov question whether the standard of accountability is changing and if data on mass-killings are part of the same underlying conceptual process of repression as other abuses. These claims are used to justify alternative models, showing no improvement in human rights. However, by focusing on the coding process, the authors misunderstand that the standard of accountability is about how monitoring organizations produce documents in the first place and not how academics use published documents to create data. Simulations and latent variables that model time in a substantively meaningful way validate the conclusion that human rights are improving.

title: Estimating the Impact of Gubernatorial Partisanship on Policy Settings and Economic Outcomes : A Regression Discontinuity Approach

description: Using panel data from US states over the period 1941-2002, I measure the impact of gubernatorial partisanship on a wide range of different policy settings and economic outcomes. Across 32 measures, there are surprisingly few differences in policy settings, social outcomes and economic outcomes under Democrat and Republican Governors. In terms of policies, Democratic Governors tend to prefer slightly higher minimum wages. Under Republican Governors, incarceration rates are higher, while welfare caseloads are higher under Democratic Governors. In terms of social and economic outcomes, Democratic Governors tend to preside over higher median post-tax income, lower post-tax inequality, and lower unemployment rates. However, for 26 of the 32 dependent variables, gubernatorial partisanship does not have a statistically significant impact on policy outcomes and social welfare. I find no evidence of gubernatorial partisan differences in tax rates, welfare generosity, the number of government employees or their salaries, state revenue, incarceration rates, execution rates, pre-tax incomes and inequality, crime rates, suicide rates, and test scores. These results are robust to the use of regression discontinuity estimation, to take account of the possibility of reverse causality. Overall, it seems that Governors behave in a fairly non-ideological manner.

title: Replication Data for: The political dynamics of portfolio design in European democracies

description: The design of government portfolios, i.e. the distribution of competencies among government ministries and office holders, constitutes a largely ignored aspect of executive and coalition politics. In this manuscript, we argue that portfolio design is a substantively and theoretically relevant phenomenon with major implications for the study of institutional design and coalition politics. Based on comparative data on portfolio design changes in nine Western European countries since the 1970s, we show how the design of government portfolios changes over time. Specifically, we show that portfolio design is changed frequently (on average about once a year) and that these reforms are more likely after changes in the prime ministership and the party composition of the government. Our findings suggest a political logic behind these reforms based on the preferences and power of political parties and politicians. They have major implications for the study of institutional design and coalition politics.

title: Quality of Agriculture and Food Security Policy Processes:Stakeholder Survey in Nigeria, 2018

description: One of the objectives of the Feed the Future (FTF) Innovation Lab for Food Security Policy (FSP) project is to foster credible, inclusive, transparent and sustainable policy processes at country level.As part of the monitoring and evaluation framework of FSP, the project has proposed two qualitative indicators to assess and track the institutional architecture and quality of policy processes on agriculture and food security in FTF countries where the project has major country level activities. Nigeria is one of the countries where the FSP project has such activities. This dataset represents the midline survey conducted in 2018 to assess and monitor: 1) the quality of agriculture and food security policy processes in Nigeria, and 2) quality of the institutional architecture for agriculture and food security policy processes, as measured by stakeholder evaluation survey to capture the level of satisfaction and confidence.

title: Replication data for: Deterring or Displacing Electoral Irregularities? Spillover Effects of Observers in a Randomized Field Experiment in Ghana

description: There are two datasets that accompany “Deterring or Displacing Electoral Irregularities? Spillover Effects of Observers in a Randomized Field Experiment in Ghana,” (Journal of Politics, 2012, 74(1): 292-307). Each observation in the main dataset, IchinoSchuendeln_spilloversJOP, is an electoral area. The electoral area-level voter registration numbers for 2004 and 2008 were calculated from official voter registration numbers at the polling station level and aggregated to the electoral area level. We use whether an observer filed a report for the registration center for a particular electoral area as our measure of whether that electoral area was visited by a registration observer. To produce the variables disttoclosestTela through visitedin0510C, we georeferenced the Electoral Commission’s (paper) map of constituency boundaries. We also geocoded the 868 electoral areas in our experiment as points by comparing the names of the polling stations located within those electoral areas with publicly available printed and digital maps, data from the 2000 population and housing census, coordinates from GPS we deployed with some of the registration observers, and on occasion, information given by local electoral officials. The second dataset, IchinoSchuendeln_spilloversJOP_ELAdistance is not needed to reproduce the main results but is needed for the randomization inference analysis. Each observation is a pair of electoral areas in the same constituency and this dataset includes the electoral area identifier code and the distance between the two electoral areas in kilometers.

title: Fertilizer prices in Sub-Saharan Africa
title: Urea prices in Sub-Saharan Africa

description: We compiled fertilizer price data for eighteen countries in West and East Africa from two data sources: (1) Africa Fertilizer (Africa Fertilizer, 2018) and (2) the Living Standards Measurement Study-Integrated Surveys on Agriculture (henceforth LSMS-ISA) (World Bank, 2018).
Africa Fertilizer reports prices over time for major towns in different countries. Prices are for 25 kg or 50 kg bags and expressed in the national currency. We compiled 7823 observations for 878 locations in seventeen countries: Benin, Burundi, Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Kenya, Mali, Malawi, Mozambique, Niger, Nigeria, Rwanda, Senegal, Togo, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia from 2010-2018. We used the town name to assign geographic coordinates to each location. Africa Fertilizer reported non-subsidized and subsidized prices for several countries.
LSMS-ISA is a nationally representative multi-topic household survey implemented in eight countries in SSA: Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Malawi, Mali, Niger, Nigeria, Tanzania, Uganda (World Bank, 2018).

title: Replication data for: Downsian Voting and the Separation of Powers

description: Voters, we hypothesize, base their choice of candidates in gubernatorial elections on the policy outcomes they expect from each candidate in government rather than on the personal policy positions of the candidates. Furthermore, voters' expectations about the relative influence of the governor in policymaking and the possibility of divided government elect voters' decisions to assess candidates based on their personal positions or on the policies they are likely to produce in government. We test these hypotheses using survey data from the 1998 Ohio and Texas gubernatorial elections. Survey respondents perceive clear differences between the candidates' positions and the position of the government led by each candidate. Voters' relative proximity to the expected position of the government under each candidate outperforms the voters' relative proximity to the candidates’' personal positions in a model of vote choice. The elect is government position is increased when voters expect a powerful governor to face an opposition legislature or a weak governor to face unified government.

title: Replication Data for: “‘They Say We’re Violent’: The Multidimensionality of Race in Perceptions of Police Brutality and BLM”

description: A growing literature demonstrates the importance of both race and skin color in one’s lived experiences, including interactions with police. Media discourse and anti-police brutality movements consistently emphasize race while little, if any, attention is given to skin color. This paper seeks to examine how Black Americans navigate the multidimensionality of race with respect to organizing efforts against institutionalized racism. Do Black Americans perceive skin color as informing police interactions and/or support incorporating skin color into anti-brutality movement messaging? Is self-identified skin color associated with these views? A combination of 67 in-depth interviews and two national surveys of Black Americans reveals widespread recognition that darker-skinned Black people are more likely to be brutalized by police and feelings that BLM organizing is implicitly associated with skin color. Yet, there is general hesitancy for movement messaging to explicitly engage with subgroup disparities based on characteristics like skin color or gender. Among self-identified darker-skinned individuals, skin color is perceived as even more tightly interwoven with policing and there is more openness to discussing skin color alongside race. Overall, this mixed-methods project highlights how Black Americans perceive the multidimensionality of racialized interactions and, in search of justice, strategize responses through social movement organizing.

title: Replication data for: Tying Hands without a Rope: Rational Domestic Response to International Institutional Constraints

description: 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 institution probably lacks enforcement power? To find out, I develop an incomplete-information game theoretic model, in which the executive and legislature of a defendant country in a World Trade Organization (WTO) dispute set trade policy. The model indicates that even leaders who know enforcement is not forthcoming (e.g., when the defendant is likely to prevail in a WTO ruling) can sometimes get significant liberalization approved by a protectionist legislature. Leaders can indeed tie their hands without (ex post) ropes. However, the model’s results contradict many aspects of conventional institutionalist theory. For instance, this tying hands function of the institution comes at the expense of additional gains when enforcement turns out to be more likely (e.g., when an adverse ruling is probable), so it does not add to the net expected level of liberalization. Moreover, the benefits of tying hands without a rope can only be realized before the institution issues prescriptions, and only then, ironically, if the transaction costs of utilizing the institution are sufficiently high. The model yields a number of additional testable hypotheses, concerning, for instance, the differential influence of the institution on unified and divided governments. Preliminary quantitative tests offer support for these hypotheses.
