title: Version 1

description: This poll, conducted June 10-14, 2005, is part of a continuing series of monthly surveys that solicit public opinion on the current presidency and on a range of other political and social issues. Respondents were asked to give their opinions of President George W. Bush and his handling of the presidency, foreign policy, the situation with Iraq, terrorism, and Social Security. Those polled also expressed their opinion on various topics regarding Social Security, including its future, if it will have money available when the respondent retires, whether the Democrats, Republicans, or George W. Bush have a proposal to change Social Security, and which party was more likely to make the right decision about it. Additionally, they were asked whether it was the government's responsibility to provide a decent standard of living for the elderly. The issue of self investment in Social Security was also raised. Respondents were asked if they thought it was a good idea to allow individuals to invest portions of their Social Security taxes themselves. Other questions were asked in regards to this topic, including whether the respondent thought it would be okay if the government had to borrow two trillion dollars to set up a program in which members could invest their Social Security taxes on their own. Another question asked if the respondent was opposed to or favored tax increases to help the Social Security program. A series of questions focused on the respondent's current savings goal, any difficulty in paying bills, and plans for retirement was also queried. Demographic variables include race, sex, age, level of education, income, voter registration status, political ideology, party affiliation, marital status, religious affiliation, and whether a member of the household is in college.

title: Conflict Management by International Organizations, 1945-1970
title: Version 2

description: This study contains data on 146 disputes in different geographical regions of the world that were managed by international or regional organizations in the period 1945-1970. Part of the project on Studies in International Integration of the Institute of International Studies at the University of California (Berkeley), this study was aimed at addressing how much difference international organizations have made in the management of international conflicts. Data are provided for conflicts brought before at least one of the following organizations whose primary concern was conflict management among members: United Nations, Organization of American States, Organization of African Unity, Arab League, and the Council of Europe. For each dispute, data are provided for the name of the conflict, issues at stake, power status of the parties involved, responses of the international organizations involved in managing the dispute, interstate nature of the dispute, duration of hostilities, civil and military fatalities, likelihood of the dispute abating, disappearing, or escalating if the disputing parties were left to themselves by the international organizations, and the likelihood that the United States and the Soviet Union would engage in a major war over the dispute, involving the use of nuclear weapons or massive conventional weapons on several fronts. A summary scale was developed by the investigators to measure the intensity levels of each dispute, and to score the successes of organizational management of the dispute.

title: Dyadic Disputes, 1920-1968
title: Version 2

description: This study is an exploration of 121 dyadic disputes that occurred among 71 nations in the period 1920-1968 and were considered in at least one of four major international institutions: the Permanent Court of International Justice (PCIJ), the International Court of Justice (ICJ), the League of Nations, and the United Nations (UN). The data were collected to provide systematic and comparative analyses of these four international institutions in the international bargaining process. The two basic units of analysis used in this study are participants (nations) and cases. The participants data are further divided into national attributes of participants and patterns of institutional usage by participants. The case-unit data are divided into case attributes and attributes of the dyadic relationship between the two participants in each case. The Attributes of Participants File (Part 1) contains information on the date of each nation's independence, date when the case was introduced to the institution and how the case was introduced, date when the nation's current regime came to power, type of political systems, stage of nation's economic development, socio-cultural regions, geographical regions, and the degree of the nation's institutional usage. The Participant Usage File (Part 2) includes data on the total number of cases in which the nation participated, jointly submitted the dispute, or was the applicant, and each nation's total weighted index of participation in the four major international institutions. The Dyadic Relationships File (Part 3) includes data on the types of issues involved in each case, hostilities associated with the case, institutions credited with stopping hostilities, collective mediation and conciliation, truce enforcement, relative power capabilities of the disputants, and military and geographical distance between disputants, as well as comparisons of economic stages of development, socio-cultural and geographical regions, and institutional usages between the disputants.
