The CSES Integrated Module Dataset is being released in a phased way. Thus, this release is an advance version of the dataset, and thus lacks some of the checking, documentation, and inclusion of certain variables that are expected with the Full Release of this dataset. This Advance Release is provided as a service to the CSES user community, for those analysts who find it valuable to work with preliminary versions of the dataset. We would appreciate being notified of any errors in the dataset or documentation by email to "cses@umich.edu". Users should expect future changes and improvements to the data and documentation of variables. If users wish to re-use their programming code on a future release of the file, the code should be written in a way that is flexible and can be accommodating of these future changes. Users of the CSES Integrated Module Dataset (IMD) may wish to monitor the errata for CSES IMD on the CSES website, to check for known errors which may impact their analyses. To view errata for CSES IMD Phase 3, go to Data Download on the CSES website, navigate to the CSES IMD download page, and click on the Errata link in the white box to the right of the page. Users of the CSES Integrated Module Dataset (IMD) are also advised that while the CSES IMD Codebook is comprehensive, users are strongly advised to consult Standalone CSES Module Documentation including Standalone CSES Module Codebooks, Macro Reports, Design Reports, and Election Summaries. =========================================================================== ))) OVERVIEW OF "CODEBOOK PART 2: VARIABLES DESCRIPTION" =========================================================================== Part 2 of the CSES IMD Codebook provides users with information about the variables in CSES IMD as well as accompanying information about each polity's election study. =========================================================================== ))) HOW TO NAVIGATE THE CSES IMD CODEBOOK =========================================================================== CSES IMD Codebook is produced in .txt format to allow for easy accessibility and as such, the Codebook can be read into a variety of programs. The CSES IMD Codebook can be navigated quickly in the electronic files, with the following commands allowing for quick searching: ))) = Section Header >>> = Sub-section Header 1 <<>> = Sub-section Header 2 +++ = Tables VARIABLES NOTES = Notes for particular variables. POLITY NOTES = Notes for a particular polity. [POLITY NOTES] = Notes for a particular polity where data in CSES IMD deviates from published data in Standalone CSES Modules. ELECTION STUDY NOTES = Notes for a particular election study. [ELECTION STUDY NOTES] = Notes for a particular election study where data in CSES IMD deviates from published data in Standalone CSES Modules. DERIVATIVE VARIABLE = Highlights a variable derived from another variable or variables within the CSES.

Variables are presented in five groupings: 1) IMD1001-IMD1999 Identification, weight, and election study variables 2) IMD2001-IMD2999 Demographic data and variables 3) IMD3001-IMD3999 Micro-level (survey) data and variables 4) IMD5001-IMD5099 Macro-level data and variables 5) IMD5100-IMD5199 Data Bridging identifier variables In the Variable Descriptions section of the CSES IMD Codebook (Part 2), the headers for individual variables are surrounded by two lines of dashes. Users are advised to consult Part 1 of the CSES IMD Codebook for more in-depth information concerning the operating principles of CSES IMD, its coding conventions, details on identification and missing data, and overviews of the dataset including detailed summary information on the election studies included in CSES IMD. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- >>> PLACEMENT OF QUESTIONS IN CSES IMD AND STANDALONE CSES MODULES --------------------------------------------------------------------------- When using variables in the CSES IMD, users are advised that even when a question is worded identically in successive surveys, its placement in the survey questionnaire may be different in each Standalone CSES Module, with unknown effects. Thus, even when a question is worded identically in successive surveys, analysts may wish to examine the placement of the question in each questionnaire to ensure that changes in its placement do not contaminate analyses. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- >>> RECODING OF VARIABLES FOR CSES IMD --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Variables for CSES IMD have been recoded to be consistent over time. Questions (and variables) are not necessarily coded the same way in CSES IMD as they are in the Standalone CSES Modules. Users are advised to consult the CSES IMD Codebook Part 2, where possible, details have been provided in VARIABLE NOTES and ELECTION STUDY NOTES regarding harmonization schemes and specific election study deviations. Users are also advised to consult Standalone CSES Module Codebooks for specific information on Module-specific studies. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- >>> DEVIATIONS FROM STANDALONE CSES MODULES --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The CSES goal is to keep deviations between Standalone CSES Modules and CSES IMD to a minimum. Nonetheless, despite question wordings being virtually identical across CSES modules, CSES IMD harmonizes variables to be consistent over time, thus necessitating some deviations to occur. These deviations may occur because of coding errors found in the Standalone CSES dataset or Standalone Codebooks. In these circumstances, these errors may result in changes being implemented in CSES IMD and the issues listed in errata on the Standalone CSES Module pages. These issues will be corrected in the Standalone CSES Modules upon re-release of these respective Standalone CSES Modules at some future date. Deviations may also legitimately arise because of different coding schemes applied in Standalone CSES Modules compared with CSES IMD, lack of data at the time of processing of Standalone CSES Modules which has since become available, or that data for certain variables were not collected in particular Standalone CSES Modules but have become eligible for inclusion in CSES IMD as it meets the "3 and 1" eligibility criteria. In line with the policy of minimizing differences between CSES IMD and Standalone CSES Modules, CSES only applies deviations between CSES IMD and Standalone CSES Modules when the above circumstances are met. In circumstances where CSES is unable to explain why coding differs between studies from the same polity over time, no changes are made to the data. Concerning deviations, Election Study Notes and Polity Notes are included under the applicable variables noting the deviations. Irregular codes discovered in Standalone CSES Modules and which could not be identified were set to missing. These are also noted in Variable Notes and Election Study Notes. Users can identify these by using the following unique search terms in Part 2 of the CSES IMD Codebook: - VARIABLE NOTES - [POLITY NOTES] - [ELECTION STUDY NOTES] --------------------------------------------------------------------------- >>> VARIABLE NOTES --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Variable notes provide information on the rationale of a variable as well as source information for that variable. It also details the polities for which no data for that particular variable are available. VARIABLE NOTES are listed below the descriptive information for the said variable and can be navigated in the Codebook by searching for "VARIABLE NOTES" in Part 2 of the CSES IMD Codebook. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- >>> POLITY NOTES AND ELECTION STUDY NOTES --------------------------------------------------------------------------- A unique dimension of the CSES are the inclusion of POLITY NOTES and ELECTION STUDY NOTES. They are notes which are attached to each variable included in the dataset and refer to case-specific information regarding a particular variable. This information may apply to a polity consistently in the dataset (i.e.: a POLITY NOTE) or one election study in the dataset (i.e.: an ELECTION STUDY NOTE). Their purpose is to provide users with more detailed information on the case or explain essential deviations specific to cases from CSES conventions. Where applicable, POLITY NOTES and ELECTION STUDY NOTES are listed below a particular variable and any VARIABLE NOTES in Parts 2, 3, and 4 of the CSES IMD Codebook. They can be navigated in the Codebook by searching for "POLITY NOTES" or ELECTION STUDY NOTES" in Parts 2-5 of the CSES IMD Codebook. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- >>> DERIVATIVE VARIABLES --------------------------------------------------------------------------- CSES IMD includes several derivative variables. A derivative variable is a variable that is derived from another variable or variables within the CSES. Their purpose is to facilitate speedier analysis for users with derivative variables capturing some of the most common analytical concepts in the discipline. A list of the DERIVATIVE VARIABLES are below this explanation and can be navigated in the Codebook by searching for "DERIVATIVE VARIABLES" in Part 2 of the CSES IMD Codebook. - IMD2001_GG BIRTH GENERATION: GREATEST GENERATION (BORN 1927 OR BEFORE) - IMD2001_GS BIRTH GENERATION: SILENT GENERATION (BORN 1928-1945) - IMD2001_GBB BIRTH GENERATION: BABY BOOMER (BORN 1946-1964) - IMD2001_GX BIRTH GENERATION: GENERATION X (BORN 1965-1980) - IMD2001_GY BIRTH GENERATION: GENERATION Y (BORN 1981-1996) - IMD2001_GZ BIRTH GENERATION: GENERATION Z (BORN 1997 ONWARDS) - IMD3001_TS TURNOUT: TURNOUT SWITCHER BETWEEN CURRENT ELECTION AND PREVIOUS ELECTION - IMD3002_OUTGOV VOTE CHOICE: CURRENT MAIN ELECTION - VOTE FOR OUTGOING GOVERNMENT (INCUMBENT) - IMD3002_VS_1 VOTE CHOICE: VOTE SWITCHER BETWEEN CURRENT ELECTION AND PREVIOUS ELECTION - IMD3002_LR_CSES VOTE CHOICE: CURRENT MAIN ELECTION – VOTE FOR LEFTIST/CENTER/RIGHTIST – CSES - IMD3002_LR_MARPOR VOTE CHOICE: CURRENT MAIN ELECTION – VOTE FOR LEFT/RIGHT (RILE) – MARPOR/CMP - IMD3002_IF_CSES VOTE CHOICE: CURRENT MAIN ELECTION – VOTE CHOICE BY IDEOLOGICAL FAMILY CLASSIFICATION – CSES - IMD3100_LR_CSES VOTE CHOICE: CURRENT MAIN ELECTION - VOTE CHOICE LINKED WITH CSES COLLABORATOR EXPERT JUDGMENT L-R - IMD3100_LR_MARPOR VOTE CHOICE: CURRENT MAIN ELECTION - VOTE CHOICE LINKED WITH MARPOR/CMP RILE - IMD3100_IF_CSES VOTE CHOICE: CURRENT MAIN ELECTION – VOTE CHOICE LINKED WITH CSES COLLABORATOR EXPERT JUDGMENT IDEOLOGICAL FAMILY =========================================================================== ))) CSES CODING OF PARTY/COALITIONS AND LEADERS IN CSES IMD - A NEW DEPARTURE =========================================================================== --------------------------------------------------------------------------- >>> CSES IMD NUMERICAL PARTY/COALITION CODING - HARMONIZATION --------------------------------------------------------------------------- CSES IMD marks a radical new departure in the CSES approach to the coding of parties and coalitions. All parties/coalitions or presidential candidates, where applicable, participating in the election or the previous election receive a NUMERICAL code. These codes are used to identify the following in the micro-component of the CSES dataset: - who the respondent voted for in the current election (IMD3002). - who the respondent voted for in the previous election (IMD3004). - the respondent's party identification (IMD3005_3). These codes are used to identify the following in the macro-component of the CSES dataset: - Party/coalition of the prime minister before the election (IMD5008_) - Party/coalition of the president before and after the election (IMD5009_) In CSES IMD, each party/coalition receives a unique numerical identifier that is consistent across modules. This seven-digit numerical identifier contains information on the polity and a unique numerical value to distinguish the party/coalition. Hence, numerical party/coalition codes are harmonized across Modules within CSES IMD. The first three digits of the identifier consist of the three-digit UN Polity Identifier Code. The remaining four digits consist of numerical codes ranging from 0001 to 9999, with each party/coalition assigned a value that remains consistent across Modules. In assigning of the last four digits, macro data specialists have assigned codes with consistent leading vote-getters in a polity being assigned lower values. Beyond this, the allocation of the final four digits is random. The harmonized and consistent codes for parties/coalitions are detailed in Part 3 of the CSES IMD Codebook. Users can search for the following term: "CSES IMD HARMONIZED PARTY/COALITION NUMERICAL CODES" --------------------------------------------------------------------------- >>> CSES IMD NUMERICAL PARTY/COALITION CODING - IMPORTANT NOTES --------------------------------------------------------------------------- In cases of a merger between two parties, the newly created party/coalition receives a different numerical code from its previous incarnations. When parties compete in electoral alliances/coalitions, the alliance/coalition receives a different numerical code from the constituent parties that make it up. Parties/coalitions that merely undergo a name change do not receive a new unique code. Instead, a POLITY/ELECTION STUDY NOTE will note the name change. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- >>> CSES IMD ALPHABETICAL PARTY/COALITION CODING - RELATIONAL DATA --------------------------------------------------------------------------- CSES IMD includes relational data for parties/coalitions. In CSES IMD, as in Standalone CSES Modules, this data is coded using an ALPHABETICAL classification with parties/coalitions where data is available receiving an alphabetical code (A-I). Parties/coalitions A through F are the six most popular parties/coalitions, ordered in descending order of their share of the popular vote in the said polity's election (unless otherwise stated). Thus Party A is the party/coalition that received the most votes in the election, party B the second most votes, etc... Parties/coalitions who achieve at least 1% of the vote nationally are eligible for an alphabetical A-F assignment. In polities with multiple electoral tiers and where one vote is cast, parties are ordered according to their vote share in tier 1 (the lowest tier), unless otherwise stated. In polities where voters have two votes (i.e., a constituency and a list vote) simultaneously, for example Germany, parties are ordered by the national share of the party list vote (tier 2). Parties G, H, and I are supplemental parties. They may, but do not have to, accord with how parties A-F are ordered, that is ordered on the popular share of the vote in a polity. More often, they are codified in no particular order. These parties are voluntarily provided by each polity's election study and often reflect important or notable parties within a polity. They may also include data about individual parties within a coalition, where data about the coalition and the individual parties, or some of these parties that make it up are provided. These codes are used to identify the following in the micro-component of the CSES dataset: - Respondent's left-right placement of the party/coalition (variable IMD3007_). - Respondent's likability of the party/coalition (variable IMD3008_). These alphabetical codes are used to identify the macro level information about these said parties/coalitions, namely: - Election Results: percentage of vote for each party/coalition in lower house (variable IMD5001_) - Election Results: percentage of seats for each party/coalition in lower house (variable IMD5002_) - Election Results: percentage of vote for each party/coalition in upper house (variable IMD5003_) - Election Results: percentage of seats for each party/coalition in upper house (variable IMD5004_) - Election Results: percentage of vote for each party/coalition in presidential election (variable IMD5005_) - Expert judgments by the national collaborators of the said party/ coalition's ideological family placement (variable IMD5011_). - Expert judgments by the national collaborators of the said party/ coalition's left-right placement (variable IMD5012_). - Number of cabinet portfolios held by each party/coalition before the election (variable IMD5029_). - Number of cabinet portfolios held by each party/coalition after the election (variable IMD5031_). To allow users to see what party/coalition A-I refers to in a particular election within a polity, variable IMD5000_ provides identifiers within the dataset with detailed labels. In addition, Part 4 of the CSES IMD Codebook details the alphabetical classifications for each polity by Standalone CSES Module. Users can search in Part 4 of the CSES IMD Codebook with the following term: "ALPHABETICAL PARTY CODES BY CSES MODULE" --------------------------------------------------------------------------- >>> CSES ALPHABETICAL LEADER CODING - RELATIONAL DATA --------------------------------------------------------------------------- CSES IMD includes relational data for leaders of parties/coalitions. In CSES IMD, as in Standalone CSES Modules, this data is coded using an ALPHABETICAL classification with leaders where data is available receiving an alphabetical code (A-I). Leaders A through F tend to be the leaders of the six most popular parties/coalitions or the presidential candidates of these parties. They correspond to parties A-F (i.e., Leader A will be related to Party A in some way, Leader B will be related to Party B, etc...) Leaders G, H, and I are supplemental leaders. They may be related to parties G, H, I, but they do not have to be. These leaders are voluntarily provided by each country's election study and often include data about additional personalities of interest. For example, in a parliamentary system, data about a President might be provided, even if the Presidency is not being contested. On many occasions, slots Leader G, H, and I will include additional data for parties/coalitions that have multiple leaders. These codes are used to identify the following in the micro and macro components of the CSES dataset: - Respondent's likability of the leader/personality in question (variable IMD3009). To allow users to see what Leader A-I refers to in a particular election within a polity, Part 4 of the CSES IMD Codebook details the alphabetical classifications of leaders for each polity by Standalone CSES Module. Users can search in Part 4 of the CSES IMD Codebook with the following term: "ALPHABETICAL LEADER CODES BY CSES MODULE" =========================================================================== ))) CSES DATA BRIDGING: NEW FRONTIERS =========================================================================== Data Bridging enables users to bring together information from CSES with other data sources. The concept is part of CSES Data Linkage efforts. CSES has been a pioneer of Data Linkage with the inclusion of various macro-level data originating from other sources (e.g., The World Bank, the IDEA) directly in CSES data products, including in CSES IMD. These macro data classify the political system's characteristics and contextual conditions of a polity at the election time. Data Bridging gives users the power to build on the direct data linkage in CSES products by enabling users to easily link other data with CSES products. CSES IMD enables users to bridge data with other prominent datasets in political science by including standard identifiers at the polity, year, and party level used by other projects to facilitate merging. CSES IMD facilitates data bridging with other datasets at the polity level with the following variables: - IMD1006_UN ID COMPONENT - POLITY UN ISO_3166-1 NUMERIC CODE - IMD1006_UNAlpha2 ID COMPONENT - POLITY UN ISO_3166-1 ALPHABETIC TWO LETTER CODE - IMD1006_NAM ID COMPONENT - POLITY NAME - IMD1006_VDem ID COMPONENT - V-Dem POLITY IDENTIFIER More details can be found on all these variables in CSES IMD Codebook Part 2 by searching for the variable name (e.g., "IMD1006_UN") or using the search term "POTENTIAL POLITY LEVEL BRIDGING IDENTIFIER". CSES IMD facilitates data bridging with other datasets at the regional level through the following variables: - IMD1006_REG ID COMPONENT - POLITY UN GEOGRAPHIC REGIONS NUMERIC CODES More details can be found on all these variables in CSES IMD Codebook Part 2 by searching for the variable name (e.g., "IMD1006_REG") or using the search term "POTENTIAL REGIONAL LEVEL BRIDGING IDENTIFIER". CSES IMD facilitates data bridging with other datasets by date through the following variables: - IMD1008_YEAR ID COMPONENT - ELECTION YEAR - IMD1011_M DATE 1ST ROUND ELECTION BEGAN - MONTH - IMD1011_D DATE 1ST ROUND ELECTION BEGAN - DAY - IMD1011_Y DATE 1ST ROUND ELECTION BEGAN - YEAR - IMD1011_1 DATE 1ST ROUND ELECTION BEGAN - YYYY-MM-DD - IMD1011_2 DATE 1ST ROUND ELECTION BEGAN - YYYYMM - IMD1012_M DATE 2ND ROUND ELECTION BEGAN - MONTH - IMD1012_D DATE 2ND ROUND ELECTION BEGAN - DAY - IMD1012_Y DATE 2ND ROUND ELECTION BEGAN - YEAR - IMD1012_1 DATE 2ND ROUND ELECTION BEGAN - YYYY-MM-DD - IMD1012_2 DATE 2ND ROUND ELECTION BEGAN - YYYYMM More details can be found on all these variables in CSES IMD Codebook Part 2 by searching for the variable name (e.g., "IMD1008_YEAR") or using the search term "POTENTIAL TIME BRIDGING IDENTIFIER". CSES IMD facilitates data bridging with other datasets at the party/coalition level with the following variables: - IMD5100_A-I MANIFESTO RESEARCH ON POLITICAL REPRESENTATION (MARPOR/CMP) IDENTIFIER - PARTY A-I - IMD5101_A-I PARLIAMENTS AND GOVERNMENT DATABASE (PARLGOV) IDENTIFIER - PARTY A-I - IMD5102_A-I CHAPEL HILL EXPERT SURVEY (CHES) IDENTIFIER - PARTY A-I - IMD5103_A-I PARTY FACTS IDENTIFIER - PARTY A-I More details can be found on all these variables in CSES IMD Codebook Part 2 by searching for the variable name (e.g., "IMD5100_A") or using the search term "POTENTIAL PARTY/COALITION LEVEL BRIDGING IDENTIFIER." Users can also see the specific bridging codes for each party/coalition assigned an alphabetical code in CSES by other projects in Part 5 of the CSES IMD Codebook. =========================================================================== ))) LIST OF TABLES IN CODEBOOK PART 2 =========================================================================== Below, we list the Tables located in CSES IMD Codebook Part 2.

The presidential election was held on September 9, 2001. | The original election study primarily refers to the presidential | election. However, leader evaluations, party evaluations, and | macro data refer to the legislative election. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES - ISRAEL (1996): IMD1009 | | Variables referring to the presidential election in CSES IMD | refer to the direct elections in 1996 for the Israeli Prime | Ministership. During the 1992-1996 parliamentary session, the | Knesset decided to introduce a system of direct election for | the prime ministership. The move followed the so-called | "Dirty Trick" scandal of 1990 when Shimon Peres, then leader of | the Labor party (Alignment), attempted to form a minority | government made up of left-wing factions and ultra-orthodox | parties, at the expense of the national unity government formed | in 1988 and led by Likud's Yitzhak Shamir. While the national | unity government became the first government in the history of | Israel to be dismissed by a parliamentary motion of | no-confidence, Peres was unable to form a government and | Yitzak Shamir continued as prime minister, now leading a | right-wing coalition government excluding Labor. During the | attempts to form a Labor-led government, potential coalition | members publicly demanded financial inducements for their | support, prompting discussions of electoral reform. The direct | election for the prime ministership continued in the 1999 and | 2001 elections but was abandoned afterwards. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- IMD1010_1 >>> ELECTION STUDY WEIGHT: SAMPLE IMD1010_2 >>> ELECTION STUDY WEIGHT: DEMOGRAPHIC IMD1010_3 >>> ELECTION STUDY WEIGHT: POLITICAL --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Election Study Weights to compensate for a type of design effect .................................................................. | VARIABLE NOTES: IMD1010_ | | These variables contain the "Polity Weights" of the Standalone | CSES Modules, originally provided as variables A1012_, B1012_, | C1012_, and D1012_.They report standardized versions (with a | mean 1 within the polity) of the original weights provided with | the component election studies. They are the ratio of each | weighting factor to the mean weight of each type, calculated | within each polity. | | The derivative "Election Study Weights" (IMD1010_) have been | created so that for each weight (sample, demographic, political), | each respondent within the election study has a mean weight | of "1". If you are running a frequency, for instance, this weight | will work so that the N in your frequency table comes out to | approximately the same as the number of interviews in the | study. This derivative weight is created by dividing the | individual weight for each respondent within an election | study by the mean for that weight for all respondents in that | election study. | | The STATA code used to create the derivative variables in the | CSES dataset is available in the original documentation of | weighting variables, available in Codebook Parts 2 of the | Standalone CSES Modules. | | Use of weights is at the discretion of the analyst based upon | the considerations of her/his individual research question. | We recommend that analysts familiarize themselves with the | weights, their components, and their methods of creation | before applying them. For IMD1010_, users are advised to pay | special attention to the documentation of the original weights | provided by collaborators (A1010_, B1010_, C1010_, D1010_) and | the factor variables reporting the mean weight of each type | (A1011_, B1011_, C1011_, D1011_), available in Codebook Parts 2 | of the CSES MODULES. | | Additionally, analysts will want to keep in mind that these | weights are prepared to be election study weights, not country | weights. To convert the weights to country weights requires an | adjustment for those countries for which one or more polities | or election studies appear in the dataset. | | In the table below, we give an overview about what types of | weights were originally provided by collaborators. More | information on these weights is available in the Codebook Parts 2 | of the CSES MODULES and in the design reports provided by | collaborators. | In cases where a collaborator provides a single weight that | is a combination of one or more of the three weight categories | (sample, demographic, and political), the weight is duplicated | in the two or more appropriate variables. Thus, analysts using | two or more of the weights simultaneously will need to account | for this duplication. | Where a weight of a particular type is unavailable, these | variables are coded 1. | | +++ TABLE: TYPE OF ORIGINAL WEIGHTS BY INDIVIDUAL ELECTION | STUDIES | | Sample Demographic Political | POLITY (ELEC YEAR) Weight Weight Weight | ----------------------------------------------------------- | AUSTRALIA (2013) - X - | AUSTRIA (2008) - X - | AUSTRIA (2013) - X - | BELGIUM-FLANDERS (1999) - X X | BELGIUM-WALLOON (1999) - X X | BELGIUM (2003) - X X | BRAZIL (2002) X X - | BRAZIL (2006) - X - | BRAZIL (2014) X - - | BULGARIA (2001) - X - | BULGARIA (2014) - X - | CANADA (1997) X - - | CANADA (2004) X - - | CANADA (2008) X - - | CANADA (2011) X - - | CANADA (2015) X - - | CHILE (1999) - - X | CHILE (2005) - X - | CHILE (2009) - X - | CROATIA (2007) - X X | CZECH REPUBLIC (2013) - - X | DENMARK (1998) - X X | DENMARK (2007) X - - | ESTONIA (2011) - X - | FINLAND (2011) - - X | FINLAND (2015) - X X | FRANCE (2002) - X - | FRANCE (2007) X X X | FRANCE (2012) - X X | GERMANY (1998) X X X | GERMANY (2002 Mail-Back) X X - | GERMANY (2002 Telephone) X X - | GERMANY (2005) X X - | GERMANY (2009) X X - | GERMANY (2013) X X - | GREAT BRITAIN (1997) X - - | GREAT BRITAIN (2005) X X - | GREAT BRITAIN (2015) X X - | GREECE (2009) - - X | GREECE (2012) - X - | GREECE (2015) - X X | HONG KONG (2008) - X - | HONG KONG (2012) - X - | HUNGARY (1998) - X - | HUNGARY (2002) - X - | ICELAND (2007) - X - | ICELAND (2009) - X - | IRELAND (2002) X X - | IRELAND (2007) - X - | IRELAND (2011) - X X | ITALY (2006) - X - | JAPAN (1996) X - - | JAPAN (2004) X - - | JAPAN (2007) X - - | JAPAN (2013) - X - | KENYA (2013) X - - | LATVIA (2010) - X - | LATVIA (2011) X X - | LATVIA (2014) - X - | LITHUANIA (1997) - X - | MEXICO (1997) X X - | MEXICO (2000) X X - | MEXICO (2003) X X X | MEXICO (2006) X X - | MEXICO (2009) X X - | MEXICO (2012) X X - | MEXICO (2015) - X - | MONTENEGRO (2012) - X - | NETHERLANDS (1998) X X X | NETHERLANDS (2002) - X X | NETHERLANDS (2006) - X X | NETHERLANDS (2010) - X X | NEW ZEALAND (1996) X - X | NEW ZEALAND (2002) X X X | NEW ZEALAND (2008) - X X | NEW ZEALAND (2011) - X X | NEW ZEALAND (2014) - X X | NORWAY (2013) - X - | PERU (2006) - X X | PERU (2011) X X X | PERU (2016) X X X | PHILIPPINES (2004) - X - | PHILIPPINES (2010) X - - | PHILIPPINES (2016) X - - | POLAND (1997) X X - | POLAND (2001) X X - | POLAND (2005) - X - | POLAND (2007) - X - | POLAND (2011) - X - | PORTUGAL (2002) - - X | PORTUGAL (2005) - X X | PORTUGAL (2009) - X - | PORTUGAL (2015) - X - | ROMANIA (2009) - X - | ROMANIA (2012) X X X | ROMANIA (2014) X X X | RUSSIA (1999) X - - | RUSSIA (2000) X - - | RUSSIA (2004) X - - | SERBIA (2012) X X - | SLOVAKIA (2010) - X - | SLOVAKIA (2016) - X - | SOUTH AFRICA (2009) X - - | SOUTH AFRICA (2014) - X - | SPAIN (1996) - X - | SPAIN (2000) - X - | SPAIN (2004) - X - | SPAIN (2008) - X - | SWITZERLAND (1999) X - - | SWITZERLAND (2003) X - - | SWITZERLAND (2007) X - X | SWITZERLAND (2011) X - X | TAIWAN (2004) - X - | TAIWAN (2008) - X - | TAIWAN (2012) - X - | THAILAND (2011) X - - | TURKEY (2011) - X - | TURKEY (2015) - X - | UNITED STATES (1996) X X - | UNITED STATES (2004) X X - | UNITED STATES (2008) X - - | UNITED STATES (2012) X X - | URUGUAY (2009) - - X | ----------------------------------------------------------- | KEY: X = available; - = not available. | | Sample weights include those intended to correct for unequal | selection probabilities resulting from "booster" samples, | procedures for selection within the household, non-response, | as well as other features of the sample design. | | Demographic weights adjust sample distributions of socio- | demographic characteristics to more closely resemble the | characteristics of the population. | | Political weights reconcile discrepancies in the reported | electoral behavior of the survey respondents from the | official vote counts. | | The corresponding variables in the Standalone CSES Modules are: | MODULE 1: A1012_1, A1012_2, & A1012_3 | MODULE 2: B1012_1, B1012_2, & B1012_3 | MODULE 3: C1012_1, C1012_2, & C1012_3 | MODULE 4: D1012_1, D1012_2, & D1012_3 | | Weights are unavailable for ALBANIA (2005), ARGENTINA (2015), | AUSTRALIA (1996, 2004, 2007), BELARUS (2001, 2008) BRAZIL | (2010), CZECH REPUBLIC (1996, 2002, 2006, 2010), DENMARK (2001), | FINLAND (2003, 2007), HONG KONG (1998, 2000, 2004), ICELAND | (1999, 2003, 2013), ISRAEL (1996, 2003, 2006, 2013), | KYRGYZSTAN (2005), NORWAY (1997, 2001, 2005, 2009), PERU (2000, | 2001), PORTUGAL (2002), ROMANIA (1996, 2004), SLOVENIA (1996, | 2004, 2008, 2011), SOUTH KOREA (2000, 2004, 2008, 2012), SWEDEN | (1998, 2002, 2006, 2014), TAIWAN (1996, 2001), (THAILAND 2001, | 2007), and UKRAINE (1998). | ELECTION STUDY NOTES - BELGIUM-WALLONIA (1999): IMD1010_3 | | For 447 respondents, the weight is set to zero.

The originally deposited | demographic weight was calculated based on the full sample, | including those respondents who were ineligible to vote. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES - NETHERLANDS (1998): IMD1010_2, IMD1010_3 | | For 287 respondents, the weight is set to zero. This is the | result of missing data which was used to calculate the original | weight. Because the assignment of zero was a collaborator | decision and the weights appear this way in the original data | deposits, no change was made. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES - PERU (2011): IMD1010_3 | | Because of compulsory voting in Peru, non-voters are coded as | zero in IMD1010_3 and are thus excluded from any analysis, | when the weight is applied. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES - PERU (2016): IMD1010_1-IMD1010_3 | | Political weights were not constructed for 123 respondents in | CSES Module 4. 105 of these respondents did not cast a vote in | the presidential elections (IMD3001_PR_1) and the remaining 18 | respondents did not specify their vote choice in | the presidential elections (IMD3002_PR_1). These cases were | set to zero for the political weight variable and thus, are | dropped from analyses if IMD1010_3 is applied. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES - PORTUGAL (2005): IMD1010_2 | | The demographic weight was constructed on the basis of Census | 2001 information about the distribution of 18+ years of age | residents in Continental Portugal on the basis of sex (2 | strata), age (3 strata), and education (3 strata). | | The demographic weight was initially deposited with 215 cases | having missing data. In the CSES data file, these cases are | coded "0." These are cases for which at least one relevant | demographic variable was missing for the respondent. The | collaborator preferred to assign a weight of "0" to these cases | given that the demographic information was not complete for the | case. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES - PORTUGAL (2005): IMD1010_3 | | The political weight was constructed on the basis of the 2005 | election results in order to weigh the results of the vote | recall question. | | The political weight was originally deposited with 428 cases | having missing data. In the CSES data file, these cases are | coded "0." These are cases for which at least one relevant | political variable was missing for the respondent. The | collaborator preferred to assign a weight of "0" to these | cases given that the political information was not complete | for the case. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES - SPAIN (2000): IMD1010_2 | | For one respondent, the weight is set to zero.

MISSING | VARIABLE NOTES: IMD2008 | | In CSES IMD, each region receives a unique numerical identifier | that is consistent across modules. This six-digit numerical | identifier contains information on the polity and a unique | numerical value to distinguish the region. | | The first three digits of the identifier consist of the | numerical codes ranging from 001 to 999, with each region | assigned a value that remains consistent across Modules. The | remaining three digits consist of the three-digit UN Polity | Identifier Code. | In assigning of the first three digits, regions in most polities | were assigned numbers randomly beginning with "001". In cases | where this practice deviates, it is detailed in POLITY NOTES. | | Users are advised to consult CSES Standalone Module Codebooks | for more details on how region is classified in Standalone | Modules. | In some polities, the region of residence variable was collected | differently in the same polity across time.

The CSES IMD harmonizes coding | by including the available data into IMD2010 (Race). | Consequentially, IMD2011 (Ethnicity) is coded missing for all | Mexican studies. | The following table lists how the original categories employed | in the Mexican studies were coded in CSES IMD: | | IMD Code Election Study Category |---------------------------------------------------------------- | 01. White | 05. Indigenous | 06. Mestizo | 96. Other | [POLITY NOTES] – PERU: IMD2010 | | The Peruvian 2011 and 2016 studies distinguish between four | ethnic groups, namely: Indigenous people, Afro Peruvians, | Whites and Mestizos. As these groups match the IMD coding scheme | for respondents' race, the Peruvian data is coded into IMD2010, | while IMD2011 (Ethnicity) has been recoded to missing. | The following table lists how the original categories employed | in the respective Peruvian studies were coded in CSES IMD: | | IMD Code Election Study Category |---------------------------------------------------------------- | 01. White | 03. Afro Peruvian | 05. Indigenous | 06. Mestizo | [POLITY NOTES] – UNITED STATES: IMD2010 | | The U.S. 1996 study does not differentiate between Asians and | Pacific Islanders. Hence, the category "02. ASIAN" includes | respondents of either origin. Researchers are advised that | respondent's race (IMD2010) was assessed by the interviewer, | while ethnic identity (IMD2011) was reported by the respondent. | Further, the U.S. 2004, 2008 and 2012 studies included separate | categories for Latinos and Hispanics. Respondents classified as | either Latino or Hispanic were recoded to 96. OTHER in the IMD. | [ELECTION STUDY NOTES] – CANADA (2008): IMD2010 | | The race variable for the Canadian 2008 election study | distinguishes respondents from racial minorities from other | respondents in the sample. As this approach is challenging | to translate to the IMD2010 coding scheme, data for Canada | (2008) is set to missing in the IMD. | [ELECTION STUDY NOTES] – GREAT BRITAIN (1997 & 2005): IMD2010 | | The British 1997 and 2005 election studies included both data | for respondents' race (IMD2010) and respondents' ethnicity | (IMD2011). Harmonizing data for the CSES IMD revealed that | the British 1997 and 2005 data for ethnicity were collapsed | into more general categories for coding race in the Standalone | CSES Modules. Therefore, the CSES IMD includes the respective | data in IMD2010 (Race), while IMD2011 (Ethnicity) is coded | missing. | The following table lists how the original categories employed | in the respective British studies were coded in CSES IMD: | | IMD Code Election Study Category |---------------------------------------------------------------- | 01. White (European) | White (Other) | 02. Asian (Chinese) | Asian (Other) | Asian (Indian) | Asian (Pakistani) | Asian (Bangladeshi) | 03. Black (African) | Black (Caribbean) | Black (Other) | 06. Mixed | 96. Other | [ELECTION STUDY NOTES] – HUNGARY (1998): IMD2010 | | The race variable for the Hungarian 1998 election study includes | data on interviewer's assessment of whether the respondent | was Romani or not. | As the Roma are an ethnic rather than racial group, the IMD | includes the respective data in IMD2011 (Ethnicity), while | IMD2010 (Race) is coded missing. | [ELECTION STUDY NOTES] – NEW ZEALAND (1996): IMD2010 | | The New Zealand 1996 election study included both data for | respondents' race (IMD2010) and respondents' ethnicity (IMD2011). | Harmonizing data for the CSES IMD revealed that the New Zealand | 1996 data for ethnicity were collapsed into more general | categories for coding race in CSES MODULE 1. | As data included in the ethnicity variable was found to be more | accurate and fine-grained, IMD2010 was set to missing for | New Zealand (1996). | [ELECTION STUDY NOTES] – NEW ZEALAND (2008): IMD2010 | | The 2008 New Zealand study differentiates between respondents | of Maori and other origins. For the IMD, respondents of Maori | origin are coded as 5. INDIGENOUS, while the remaining | respondents are coded as 96.

Harmonizing data for the CSES IMD revealed that | the British 1997 and 2005 data for ethnicity were collapsed | into more general categories for coding race in the Standalone | CSES Modules. Therefore, the CSES IMD includes the respective | data in IMD2010 (Race), while IMD2011 (Ethnicity) is coded | missing. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES – GREAT BRITAIN (2015): IMD2011 | | The British 2015 election study incorporates a coding scheme | combining racial and ethnic groups.

The CSES standard is that the | occupation variables are asked from those in labor force. | However, in some cases, for respondents categorized as not in | labor force in IMD2014 (codes 6-12) the occupation variables may | report respondent's last occupation. Hence, the responses | concerning occupation that belong to respondents not in labor | force presumably reflect their previous or last occupation. | | Some studies do not include information on the weekly working | time. In studies distinguishing between "full time" and "part | time" employment, respondents are coded as working full | time or part-time, respectively, regardless of their actual | weekly working time.

For respondents who are currently employed, these | variables report their current occupation.

NOT ASCERTAINED/ | INCUMBENT CANDIDATE/PARTY DID NOT CONTEST". Further explanations | are provided in the POLITY NOTES and ELECTION STUDY NOTES below. | | This variable is original to CSES IMD, and therefore there are | no corresponding variables in the Standalone CSES Modules. | | Data are unavailable for THAILAND (2001). | POLITY NOTES – HONG KONG: IMD3002_OUTGOV | | The Chief Executive (CE) in Hong Kong is the highest government | official, but they do not belong to any political party. Hence, | IMD3002_OUTGOV was coded as "9999996. NOT ASCERTAINED/INCUMBENT | CANDIDATE/PARTY DID NOT CONTEST." | POLITY NOTES – SWITZERLAND: IMD3002_OUTGOV | | The Federal Council of Switzerland functions as the collective | executive in Switzerland. Because the Federal President rotates | among its members from each of the parties on a fixed, annual | basis, no incumbent was coded. | POLITY NOTES – SOUTH KOREA: IMD3002_OUTGOV | | For all South Korean Studies in the CSES IMD, IMD3002_OUTGOV is | coded based on the party affiliation of the incumbent President | at the time of the respective election. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES - BELARUS (2008): IMD3002_OUTGOV | | The incumbent president at the time of the election, Alexander | Lukashenko, was not a member officially of any party. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES - CHILE (1999): IMD3002_OUTGOV | | The incumbent president at that time, Tagle, was a member of the | Christian Democratic Party. He was elected in 1993 with the | support of the alliance, Concertation, which the Christian | Democracy Party was a member of. In the 1999 election, however, | the Concertation alliance supported Ricardo Lagos from the Party | for Democracy. Because the numerical party codes in CSES MODULE | 1 referred to the individual parties and not the alliance, | respondents were coded as "9999996. NOT ASCERTAINED/INCUMBENT | CANDIDATE/PARTY DID NOT CONTEST." | ELECTION STUDY NOTES - CHILE (2005): IMD3002_OUTGOV | | The incumbent president at the time of the 2005 Chilean | Presidential Election, Ricardo Lagos, was a member of the Party | for Democracy. He was elected in 2000 with the support of the | alliance Concertation, of which the Party for Democracy was a | member. In the 2005 Presidential election, however, the | Concertation alliance supported Michelle Bachelet from the | Socialist Party of Chile. Because the numerical party codes for | vote choice in the 2005 Chilean Presidential Election | (IMD3002_PR_1) refer to the individual parties and not the | alliance, voters who stated to have voted for the Socialist Party | in IMD3002_PR_1 were coded as having voted for the party of the | incumbent. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES - CHILE (2009): IMD3002_OUTGOV | | The incumbent president, Michelle Bachelet (Socialist Party), | did not stand for election in the 2009 Chilean presidential | elections. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES - CZECH REPUBLIC (2013): IMD3002_OUTGOV | | Prior to the election, the Czech Republic was governed by a | caretaker government led by Jiri Rusnok. 14 of the 15 cabinet | members had no formal party membership. Thus, only respondents | who voted for the Christian Democratic Union - Czech People's | Party (KDU-CSL), the party of the 15th cabinet member, were | coded as "1. VOTED FOR THE OUTGOING GOVERNMENT" here. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES - GREECE (2012): IMD3002_OUTGOV | | The government at the time of the election was a caretaker | government (May 6, 2012, to June 17, 2012). All of its members | were independents. Hence, IMD3002_OUTGOV was coded as "9999996. | NOT ASCERTAINED/INCUMBENT CANDIDATE/PARTY DID NOT CONTEST." | ELECTION STUDY NOTES – ISRAEL (1996): IMD3002_OUTGOV | | 20 respondents were coded as not applicable for the lower house | vote choice variable in MODULE 1, A2030. These respondents are | coded as missing here. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES - JAPAN (2013): IMD3002_OUTGOV | | Because the 2013 Japanese election study in MODULE 4 referred to | the upper house elections, the incumbent variable was coded on | the basis of the lower house and the Abe government. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES – KENYA (2013): IMD3002_OUTGOV | | The incumbent Mwai Kibaki (Party of National Unity, PNU) did not | contest in the 2013 presidential elections because of term | limitations which permitted him to run for a third term. Also | the PNU did not field a candidate of its own in 2013. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES – KYRGYZSTAN (2005): IMD3002_OUTGOV | | The presidential office was held by the interim Kurmanbek | Bakiev, who had taken over the office three and a half months | prior to the election after then-President Akayev fled the | country because of protests. Hence, IMD3002_OUTGOV was coded as | "9999996. NOT ASCERTAINED/INCUMBENT CANDIDATE/PARTY DID NOT | CONTEST." | ELECTION STUDY NOTES – LITHUANIA (1997): IMD3002_OUTGOV | | The incumbent president Algirdas Brazauskas (Democratic Labour | Party of Lithuania, LDDP) did not contest for another term and | his party, the LDDP, did not field or support another candidate. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES – PERU (2001): IMD3002_OUTGOV | | The party of the incumbent president, Alberto Fujimori, Cambio | 90 did not field a candidate in the 2001 presidential elections. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES – PERU (2006): IMD3002_OUTGOV | | The party of the incumbent president Alejandro Toledo (Possible | Peru) nominated Rafael Aubry for the 2006 elections. Three | months before the elections, however, Aubry withdrew his | candidacy. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES – PERU (2016): IMD3002_OUTGOV | | The alliance Peru Wins, which had supported the incumbent, | Ollanta Humala, did not field a candidate in the 2016 elections. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES – PHILIPPINES (2004): IMD3002_OUTGOV | | IMD3002_OUTGOV is coded based on the party affiliation of | Gloria Macapagal Arroyo (LAKAS-CMD), the incumbent President at | the time of the 2004 Philippine Presidential election. Arroyo | originally got elected as the Vice President in the 1998 | Presidential election on a separate ticket, but became President | of the Philippines in 2001, after an impeachment of then | President Joseph Estrada. Arroyo ran for re-election in 2004 | and won the election. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES – ROMANIA (1996): IMD3002_OUTGOV | | The lower house election was chosen as the main election for | 1996 because the data for the presidential election in MODULE 1 | refers to the second round. Hence, the incumbent party here was | the party of the then Prime Minister, Nicolae Vacaroiu (Romanian | Party of Social Democracy, PSD, which was known then as the Party | of Social Democracy in Romania, PDSR). | ELECTION STUDY NOTES – ROMANIA (2014): IMD3002_OUTGOV | | While the incumbent President Basescu technically ran on a | Democrat Liberal Party (PDL) ticket in 2009, Romanian presidents | cannot be legally a member of a party. According to the macro | report from MODULE 4, Basescu was also closer to the People's | Movement Party (PMP) during the second half of his term. Hence, | respondents were coded as "9999996. NOT ASCERTAINED/INCUMBENT | CANDIDATE/PARTY DID NOT CONTEST." | ELECTION STUDY NOTES – RUSSIA (2000): IMD3002_OUTGOV | | The incumbent president Boris Yeltsin (Independent) did not | stand for re-election in the 2000 Russian presidential | elections. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES – RUSSIA (2004): IMD3002_OUTGOV | | Vladimir Putin formally ran as an Independent candidate in | the previous Russian presidential elections in 2000 and the | the 2004 election. Hence, he was identified as the | incumbent president. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES – SOUTH KOREA (2004): IMD3002_OUTGOV | | IMD3002_OUTGOV is coded based on the party affiliation of Goh Kun | (Millennium Democratic Party) the incumbent President at the time | of the 2004 South Korean legislative election held on April 15, | 2004. A month before the election, the National Assembly, South | Korea's unicameral parliament, voted in favor of an impeachment | of then-President Roh Moo-hyun (Our Party). However, South | Korea's Constitutional Court overturned the impeachment one month | after the election, such that Roh reassumed office in May 2004. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES – THAILAND (2007): IMD3002_OUTGOV | | The 2007 Thailand elections were the first after a military | junta had overthrown the previous government. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- IMD3002_VS_1 >>> VOTE CHOICE: VOTE SWITCHER BETWEEN CURRENT ELECTION AND PREVIOUS ELECTION --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This item ascertains whether or not the respondent reports voting for the same party/coalition in the current and previous election or whether the respondent reports voting for a different party/ coalition in the current election from the previous election. .................................................................. 0.

It takes 24 categories (12 | are defined as right-wing and 12 as left-wing) and subtracts the | sum of all right-wing items from the sum of all left-wing items. | The RILE index ranges from -100 (if a party only mentions left- | wing issues in its program) and +100 (if a party only mentions | right-wing issues in its program).

This index was developed by Laver | and Budge (1992). It takes 24 categories (12 are defined as | right-wing and 12 as left-wing) and subtracts the sum of all | right-wing items from the sum of all left-wing items. | The rile index ranges from -100 (if a party only mentions left | wing issues in its program) and +100 (if a party only talks | about right-wing issues). However, these are only theoretical | maximum and minimum, which are empirically very rare, | as most parties talk about both – left and right issues. | | This variable links the MARPOR "rile" index value with the | reported vote of the respondent in the main election. Here, a | respondent who reports voting for a party/candidate of PARTY A | is assigned the value MARPOR "rile" index gave to PARTY A in | the said election (and so on for PARTY B, PARTY C etc...).

For | example CSES sometimes has data solely on coalitions and not | the parties comprising the alliance, while MARPOR/CMP may have | data concerning the individual parties in the coalition, or | vice versa. Consequently, some parties may have multiple | identifiers within the MARPOR/CMP dataset across time. A non | comprehensive list of these deviations are noted in Part 5 | of the CSES IMD Codebook in POLITY NOTES. | | This variable is original to CSES IMD, and therefore there are no | corresponding variables in the Standalone CSES Modules. | | Data are unavailable primarily because some polities, which are | in the CSES, are not represented in the MARPOR/CMP dataset. | | Data are unavailable for ARGENTINA (2015), BRAZIL (2002, 2006, | 2010, 2014), CHILE (1999, 2005, 2009), HONG KONG (1998, 2000, | 2004, 2008, 2012), KENYA (2013), KYRGYZSTAN (2005), PERU (2000, | 2001, 2006, 2011, 2016), PHILIPPINES (2004, 2010, 2016), TAIWAN | (1996, 2001, 2004, 2008, 2012), THAILAND (2001, 2007, 2011), and | URUGUAY (2009). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- IMD3100_IF_CSES >>> VOTE CHOICE: CURRENT MAIN ELECTION – VOTE CHOICE LINKED WITH CSES COLLABORATOR EXPERT JUDGMENT IDEOLOGICAL FAMILY --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This item links the respondents' reported vote choice in the main election with the CSES Collaborators experts' judgment of the ideological family of the party the respondent reported voting for. ..................................................................

Not | applicable" because these studies do not refer to Upper House | elections. | [POLITY NOTES] - HONG KONG: IMD5016_ | | Hong Kong adopted a constitutional reform package in 2010, which | also affected the election law. Reforms increased the size of | the unicameral Legislative Council of the HKSAR to 70 members. | Half of the legislative council is returned by geographic | constituency (popular) elections; the other half is returned by | functional constituency elections. | Election data on Hong Kong electoral institutions refer to the | geographical constituency elections only. | In the Geographical Constituency (GC) part of the Election, Hong | Kong is divided into 5 constituencies and voters elect | candidates by universal suffrage. The number of LegCo seats in | each constituency is decided according to the constituency | population. The voting system adopted is the closed list | proportional representation system. Geographical Constituency is | treated here as the first segment of the LegCo. | There are two parts of the Functional Constituencies (FCs): the | traditional FCs and the District Council (Second) FC. | The traditional FCs return 30 LegCo members. Registration as a | voter in some traditional Fcs requires certain qualifications, | for example, registered medical practitioners or dentists for | the Medical FC. Note that in some FCs, voters are individuals, | while in others, 'voters' are not individuals but companies or | organizations. | The District Council (Second) FC was created in 2012 and is | treated here as the second segment of the LegCo. This segment | returns 5 LegCo members. In this part of election, the whole of | Hong Kong has one constituency only and the voting system adopted | is the closed-list proportional representation system. Candidates | must be elected District Council members who are nominated by no | less than 15 other elected District Council members; whereas | voters are registered GC electors who are not registered in | other FCs. | [POLITY NOTES] - MEXICO: IMD5016_1 - IMD5016_2 | | Mexican voters cast a single vote in a single-member district | plurality election. However, this also counts for the allocation | of the proportional representation seats disputed in the larger | regional multi-member districts (five circumscriptions). Thus, | voters are not allowed to split their vote, in fact, the same | vote is subject to a double-counting that produces two-seat | relevant vote totals. The first vote total determines who wins | the plurality in the single-member district (300 seats). The | second serves to allocate seats in the multi-member districts | (200 seats). The PR seats are allocated according to the | aggregate distribution of votes of multi-member districts. | For a party to be entitled to have members of proportional | representation in the Lower Chamber, it must attain at | least 2% of the total votes cast for these elections. | | Since voters in Mexico cast a single vote, all Mexican studies | have been coded "97. Not applicable" for variable IMD5016_2. | This is a change in IMD compared with CSES Standalone Module. | The change applies to Mexico 1997 and 2000 studies. | [POLITY NOTES] - NETHERLANDS: IMD5016_3 - IMD5016_4 | | Members of the Senate (Eerste Kamer) of the Dutch Parliament | (the States General) are elected indirectly - by the members | of the twelve Provincial Councils. Thus, coding for Netherlands | 1998 and 2002 studies is set to "97, Not applicable" which is | not the case in Standalone Modules. | [POLITY NOTES] - NORWAY: IMD5016_ | | The Norwegian Parliament comprises 169 seats in two tiers: | 150 members are elected in 19 multi-member districts using | proportional representation. The remaining 19 seats are | compensatory and are allocated to parties that receive 4%+ of | the national vote. These seats are known as "members at large" | and are seen as a means of evening out discrepancies between | the number of votes received and the number of seats in the | Storting. The distribution is based on a comparison of the | actual distribution of seats with what would have occurred | had the country been treated as one big constituency, thus | allowing a determination to be made as to which parties are | under-represented. These parties are then awarded "seats at | large" in the constituencies where they were closest to winning | an ordinary seat. While voters do not cast a ballot directly for | this tier and the seats are awarded at the national level | (albeit dispersed at the constituency level), it is widely | acknowledged to constitute a separate tier of the electoral | system. | | For more information see: | https://www.stortinget.no/en/In-English/About-the-Storting/ | Elections/ | (Date accessed: July 22, 2019). | [POLITY NOTES] - PHILIPPINES: IMD5016_3 | | The Philippines Senate (Senado) has 24 members, serving six- | years terms. Concurrently with presidential elections, half | of the Senate (12 members) is renewed every three years, in a | single nation-wide constituency. Senators are elected | according to the simple majority, and each voter can cast | up to 12 votes. Hence, vote percentages and national totals | are not meaningful figures. | [POLITY NOTES] - POLAND: IMD5016_2 | | Constitution reform in 1997 and the changed divisions of 1999 | required reform of the electoral system. System changed before | the 2001 elections seeing the final liquidation of the party list | system where some MPs were elected based on nationwide support | and some based on the support from local constituencies. This | changed in the mentioned reform, and Polish citizens, in the | subsequent Parliamentary elections covered by CSES (2001-2011) | casted a single vote. | [POLITY NOTES] - POLAND: IMD5016_3 | | In Senate election, voters have as many votes as there are | candidates to be elected in a district (between 1 and 4). | Thus, all Poland studies have been coded "91. OTHER [SEE | ELECTION STUDY NOTES]" for the variable IMD5016_3. Coding has | changed for the following Polish studies: 1997, 2005, 2007 and | 2011. | [POLITY NOTES] - SLOVENIA: IMD5016_2 | | Voters in Slovenia cast a single vote in open list proportional | system, a one-tier system. Since there has not been a rule | change in between elections covered by CSES, Slovenia 1996 and | 2004 studies are coded "97. Not applicable" for the CSES IMD. | [POLITY NOTES] - SPAIN: IMD5016_3 | | The Senate contains 208 directly elected seats and 56 | indirectly elected seats. This section refers to the directly | elected section. There are 52 multi-member constituencies | corresponding to the country's provinces, plus Ceuta and Melilla | The provinces elect 4 Senators each. In the case of insular | provinces, major islands elect 3 Senators each while small | islands elect 1 Senator each. The autonomous cities of Ceuta | and Melilla elect 2 Senators each. | Thus, Spain (1996, 2004 and 2004) studies have been recoded to | 3 for the variable IMD5016_3. | [POLITY NOTES] - THAILAND: IMD5016_ | | Under the 2007 Constitution, a new electoral system was adopted, | reintroducing a modified version of a previous form of electoral | system (the one preceding the 1997 constitution). There are 400 | single-seat districts were combined into larger | districts: 4 single-seat, 63 with 2 seats, and 90 with 3 seats. | These constituencies use the Block Vote (BV) system which allows | voters to cast as many ballots as there are seats in a district. | Voters are not permitted to cast all their votes for a single | candidate but can split their votes between candidates nominated | by different parties, for a total of 400 seats. Parallel to this | tier, 80 seats are distributed according to PR list, in 8 | regional constituencies of roughly equivalent proportions, | without a threshold. Each party submits a list with 10 | candidates who are listed once, and who can also contest | constituency seats. | [ELECTION STUDY NOTES] - FRANCE (2002): IMD5016_3 | | France (2002) has been coded "97. NOT APPLICABLE" for variable | IMD5016_3 because members of Senate (French Upper House) are | indirectly elected. | [ELECTION STUDY NOTES] - GERMANY (1998): IMD5016_3 | | GERMANY (1998) has been coded "97. NOT APPLICABLE" for variable | IMD5016_3 because members of Bundesrat (German Upper House) are | indirectly elected. | [ELECTION STUDY NOTES] - TAIWAN (1996): IMD5016_ | | In 1996, Taiwan held Presidential elections. Coding for variables | IMD5016_2 - IMD5016_4 for Taiwan (1996) study in CSES MODULE 1 | refers to the system, and not the election in question. For the | IMD these codes have been changed into "97.

Thus, all Belgium studies | have been coded "7. Not applicable" for the variable IMD5017_4. | [POLITY NOTES] - BRAZIL: IMD5017_1 | | Each political party presents a list of candidates. Voters can | vote for a candidate or they can vote for a party. Thus, all | studies have been recoded to "4. Other" for the variable | IMD5017_1. | [POLITY NOTES] - CHILE: IMD5017_ | | Each political coalition presents a list of a maximum of two | candidates per electoral district, normally each from a | different party of the coalition. Voters vote for one candidate | of one of the lists. However, parties present lists, and thus | all Chile studies have been coded "2. Party lists" for the | variables IMD5017_1 and IMD5017_3. | [POLITY NOTES] - CZECH REPUBLIC: IMD5017_3 | | None of the Czech Republic studies in CSES Standalone modules | does not deal with the upper house election in the country. | Thus, all Czech studies have been recoded to "7. Not applicable" | for the variable IMD5017_3. | [POLITY NOTES] - DENMARK: IMD5017_1 | | Voters can choose to endorse a party, a candidate on a party | list, or an independent candidate. Parties can choose to have | either an open or a party ranked list of candidates. If the | list is open votes that are cast on the party (the voter has | not given a personal vote) are distributed between the | candidates based on the number of personal votes. If the list | is party ranked a vote cast on the party will be given to the | candidate listed first on the list until he or she has | received enough votes to be elected and so on. Thus, all studies | for Denmark have been recoded to "4. Other" for variable | IMD5017_1. | [POLITY NOTES] - FRANCE: IMD5017_3 | | The Upper House (Senate) of French Parliament constitutes of 348 | members who are indirectly elected by elected officials. Thus, | all French studies have been coded "7. Not applicable" for the | variable IMD5017_3. | [POLITY NOTES] - GERMANY: IMD5017_3 | | The Upper House (Bundesrat) of German Parliament constitutes of | 69 members who are indirectly elected. Thus, all German studies | have been coded "7. Not applicable" for the variable IMD5017_3. | POLITY NOTES - HONG KONG: IMD5017_ | | Hong Kong adopted a constitutional reform package in 2010, which | also affected the election law. Geographical Constituency (GC) | and Functional constituency (FG) constitute two segments, tiers. | In both tiers, voters cast a vote for candidates. | Please consult the POLITY NOTE for IMD5016_. | | Prior to the 2010 reform, in geographical constituency elections, | each voter can casted 1 vote for a list that includes the names | of one or more candidates (up to the maximum number of Legco | members returned by that geographical constituency). The same | political party (group) may put up more than one list in a | constituency, and candidates on a list may belong to different | political party (group). | | Due to the above-mentioned change, coding for Hong Kong (2012) | study differs from the earlier Hong Kong studies, for the | variables IMD5017_. | [POLITY NOTES] - MEXICO: IMD5017_2 | | In Mexico, each voters' vote is counted twice; once for the | single-member district contest, and a second time for the | regional PR contest. Accordingly, the voting procedure is coded | as voting for candidates and for a party list for each | respective contest. For that reason, Mexico (2003) has been | recoded to 2 for the variable IMD5017_2. | [POLITY NOTES] - MEXICO: IMD5017_3 and IMD5017_4 | | In Mexico, each voters' vote for choosing senators is counted | twice; once for the 3-seat multi-member districts contest, and a | second time for the national PR contest (see Election Study note | for D5038_3-4 for details). Accordingly, the voting procedure is | coded as voting for candidates and for a party list for each | respective contest. | [POLITY NOTES] - NETHERLANDS: IMD5017_1 | | A vote is always one for a list and for a candidate at the | same time (matrix). A majority of voters cast their vote on | the first candidate on the list. However, not all voters do | that. Thus, all Netherlands studies have been recoded to | "4. Other" for the variable IMD5017_1. | [POLITY NOTES] - NETHERLANDS: IMD5017_3 | | Members of the Senate (Eerste Kamer) of the Dutch Parliament | (the States General) are elected indirectly - by the members | of the twelve Provincial Councils. Thus, all Dutch studies have | been coded "7. Not applicable" for the variable IMD5017_3. | [POLITY NOTES] - NORWAY: IMD5017_2 | | Voters in Norway cast only one single ballot in the election on | the basis of party lists. This vote directly impacts the | selection of the 150 members elected in the 19 multi-member | districts using proportional representation. However, the ballot | also influences the dispersion of the 19 "member at large seats" | (for more see D5038_2). As such, when voters are casting their | ballot for party lists they are also casting a ballot, albeit | indirectly for the allocation of the "member at large seats". | Accordingly, we code this as "2.PARTY LISTS" for all Norway | studies. | [POLITY NOTES] - PERU: IMD5017_1 | | In Peru, voters cast one vote for a party list, but they can | also express optionally a preferential vote for some specific | candidate. They can signal up to two preferred candidates from | the list he has chosen. The preferential votes are taken into | account only to decide the order in which candidates | from a list will fill the seats the party has won in the | election. Thus, Peru (2011) study has been recoded to 2 for | the variable IMD5017_1. | [POLITY NOTES] - POLAND: IMD5017_ | | For the Polish 1997 election, 460 members of Polish Parliament | (Sejm) were elected in a two-tier system: 391 members from | party lists who passed a threshold of 5% of the total vote | (8% for registered coalitions). The remaining 69 seats were | reserved for parties/coalitions which (a) registered their lists | in at least half of the districts by collecting 3,000 valid | signatures in each, (b) submitted a national list of candidates, | and (c) gained at least 7% of the total vote. This constituted a | second tier. | | The new Constitution from 1997, and a change of administrative | divisions adopted in 1999, required a change of the electoral | system. New rules were implemented for the 2001 elections. | One of the most important changes included final liquidation of | party list, and the liquidation of the second tier. | [POLITY NOTES] - ROMANIA: IMD5017_1 and IMD5017_3 | | Romania (2009 and 2014) studies are about Presidential | elections. Thus, these two studies have been coded "7. Not | applicable" for the variable IMD5017_3. | | The remaining three Romanian studies are concerned with the | Parliamentary election. Romania (1996 and 2004) studies are | coded "2. Party lists" because from 1992 to 2008 Romania used | proportional systems, closed lists, for the Upper house | elections. Romania (2012) study is coded "4. Other" because | from 2008 to 2016 Romania used mixed-member proportional | system - voters had two votes, one for a party, and the other for | candidates. | From 2016 the law changed again, and Romania is now back to | using a proportional system with closed lists. | [POLITY NOTES] - SLOVENIA: IMD5017_2 | | In Slovenia members of Italian and Hungarian indigenous ethnic | communities, under the Constitution, are entitled to 2 deputy | seats, one seat for each community. | For Slovenian (1996 and 2004) studies, this was treated as second | segment (tier). However, members of the Italian and Hungarian | community, as other voters in Slovenia, cast one vote, and even | though they are calculated separately, they do not constitute a | separate tier. Thus, all Slovenia studies are recoded to "7. Not | applicable" in CSES IMD for IMD5017_2. | [POLITY NOTES] - SPAIN: IMD5017_3 | | The Upper House (Senate) of Spain Parliament (Cortes Generales), | constitutes of 266 members. Regional legislatures designate | their representatives for the Senate (58 members). The remaining | 208 senators are directly elected. | | For the Upper House election, Spain uses single non-transferable | vote (limited voting), where voters have fewer votes than there | are positions available. Parties present a list of three names, | but voters cast votes for candidates. Each voter may mark up to | three candidates' names, from any party. Even though they are | allowed to give their votes to candidates from different party | lists (panachage) this happens rarely, and the four Senators are | usually the three candidates from the most popular party and the | first placed candidate from the next most popular. | | Thus, all Spain studies have been coded "4. Other" for the | variable IMD5017_3. | [POLITY NOTES] - SWITZERLAND: IMD5017_1 | | Swiss voters can cast their vote in many different ways. Among | others they can a) simply vote for a party list, b) endorse | specific candidates from the party list, c) add candidates from | other parties instead of a candidate of the list (panachage), | d) delete candidates or vote twice for the same candidate | (cumulation). Due to these varieties in options for voters, all | Swiss studies have been coded "4. Other" for the variable | IMD5017_1. | POLITY NOTES - TAIWAN: IMD5017_2 | | The electoral law in 2008 changed rules for legislative | elections to a mixed-member majoritarian (MMM) system, and the | total number of seats has been reduced to 113. Among them, | 73 seats are elected based on the single-member districts (SMD), | 34 seats based on the proportional representation (PR) in a | nationwide district, and 6 seats for the aboriginals. | | Previously, Legislative Yuan had 225 seats; 168 legislators from | the special municipalities, counties, and cities (29 such | primary districts); 4 seats for members of plains Aborigine | tribes and 4 for members of mountain Aborigine tribes, 8 seats | representing the overseas Taiwanese community, and 41 'at-large' | legislators. In case of overseas and 'at large' seats, political | parties are given those seats to fill, based on their percentage | (national) of the vote. Since Taiwanese voters cast only single | nontransferable vote (SNTV) the country is coded as having one | segment, but primary and secondary districts. | | Thus, there is a difference in coding for Taiwan studies before | and after 2008 change of law. Additionally, Taiwan (1996) study, | for the same reason, has been recoded to "7. Not applicable" for | the variable IMD5017_2. | POLITY NOTES - TAIWAN: IMD5017_3-IMD5017_4 | | Constitutional amendments promulgated on April 25, 2000, | established a unicameral legislative system in Taiwan. Thus, | coding for Taiwan (1996) study from MODULE 1 differs from all | following Taiwan studies. For all the following studies, | starting from 2001 study, variables IMD5017_3 and IMD5017_4 are | coded "7.

Later reforms in 2017 made Senate in Chile a | 50-members body, with senators elected for an eight-year term. | Senate elections are held every four years for approximately | half the seats. All the voting for Senators happens in one round. | Thus, all Chile studies have been coded 1 for variable IMD5018_3. | [POLITY NOTES] - HONG KONG: IMD5018_ | | In geographical constituency elections, there is only one round | of voting. Thus, all Hong Kong studies in CSES IMD have been | recoded to 1. | [POLITY NOTES] - NORWAY: IMD5018_ | | Voters in Norway cast only one single ballot in the election on | the basis of party lists. This vote directly impacts the | selection of the 150 members elected in the 19 multi-member | districts using proportional representation.

Not applicable" for the variables | IMD5022_3 and IMD5022_4. | [POLITY NOTES] - CZECH REPUBLIC: IMD5022_3 | | None of the Czech Republic studies in CSES Standalone modules | does not deal with the upper house election in the country. | Thus, all Czech studies have been recoded to "97. Not | applicable" for the variable IMD5022_3. | POLITY NOTES - HONG KONG: IMD5022_ | | Hong Kong underwent a change in electoral rules in 2010, and | these changes were applied in the 2012 elections. One of the | novelties of the system is introducing 5 new members elected | from Functional constituencies (FC), which are special interest | groups involved in the elections. These additions have been | treated as second segment (tier) in the CSES schema. As a | consequence of this change, coding of IMD5022_ variables | differ in some instances, among studies before and after the | 2010 reforms. | POLITY NOTES - JAPAN: IMD5022_1 | | In the single-member districts of the Lower House contest, as | well as for the prefecture-level districts of the Upper House, | a candidate needs to obtain votes at least equal to one-sixth | of the quotient obtained by dividing the total of valid ballots | cast by the number of seats to be filled from the constituency | concerned. For all single-member districts of the lower house | contest this equals obtaining at least 1/6 (16.7%) of | the total valid votes. Instead, the multi-member prefecture | -level districts of the Upper House contest have variable | district magnitudes with a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 5. In | this case, this quotient varies from 16.6% to 3.33% of the valid | votes. | This rule has been in force for all of the elections covered by | studies included in CSES. However, some minor differences may | occur due to rounding issues of statistical software packages. | [POLITY NOTES] - NEW ZEALAND: IMD5022_2 | | New Zealand has an alternative threshold: Parties with more than | 5% of the total votes nationally on the basis of the party list | votes ('party vote', tier 2) or those who have won one of the 70 | constituency seats (tier 1) are entitled to sit in parliament | and may be eligible to receive a proportional share of the 50 | list seats on the basis of their national vote share. | Thus, New Zealand (2008) coded in Standalone MODULE 3 dataset "5" | has been recoded to 96, like the other New Zealand studies in | CSES. | [POLITY NOTES] - SOUTH AFRICA: IMD5022_1 | | South Africa is one national district with a magnitude of four | hundred. There is no legal threshold for gaining representation. | Thus, all South Africa studies have been recoded to 0 for | variable IMD5022_1 | [POLITY NOTES] - SOUTH AFRICA: IMD5022_3 & IMD5022_4 | | South Africa's National Council of Provinces (Upper house) | comprises of 90 provincial delegates, who are indirectly | elected. Thus, all South Africa studies have been coded | "97. Not applicable" for the variables IMD5022_3 and IMD5022_4. | [POLITY NOTES] - SOUTH KOREA: IMD5022_2 | | The threshold applies to the nation-wide proportional district: | 3% of the total valid votes for party lists, or at least 5 | primary district seats. | Thus, South Korea (2008) has been recoded to "96. OTHER | THRESHOLD [SEE ELECTION STUDY NOTES]." | [ELECTION STUDY NOTES] - CANADA (2008): IMD5022_2 | | Canada uses plurality voting "first-past-the-post" system, with | single-member electoral divisions. Thus it is a single-tier | system, and Canadian (2008) study was recoded to "97. Not | applicable" for variable IMD5022_2. | [ELECTION STUDY NOTES] - IRELAND (2007): IMD5022_3 | | Upper house of Irish Parliament (Oireachtas) consists of members | which are not directly elected. Thus, Ireland (2007) study has | been recoded to "97. Not applicable" for variable IMD5022_3. | [ELECTION STUDY NOTES] - LATVIA (2010): IMD5022_3 & IMD5022_4 | | Latvia's Parliament (Saeima) is unicameral body. Thus, Latvia | (2010) study has been recoded to "97. Not applicable" for | variables IMD5022_3 and IMD5022_4. | [ELECTION STUDY NOTES] - NEW ZEALAND (2014): IMD5022_3 | | New Zealand's Parliament is a unicameral body. Thus, New Zealand | (2014) study has been recoded to "97. Not applicable" for | variable IMD5022_3. | [ELECTION STUDY NOTES] - PERU (2011): IMD5022_3 & IMD5022_4 | | Peru's Parliament (Congress of the Republic of Peru) is | unicameral body. Thus, Peru (2011) study has been recoded to | "97. Not applicable" for variables IMD5022_3 and IMD5022_4. | [ELECTION STUDY NOTES] - ROMANIA (2009): IMD5022_2 & IMD5022_4 | | The CSES survey was conducted for the 2009 Presidential | Election in Romania. Thus, the study is recoded to "97. Not | applicable" for variables IMD5022_2 and IMD5022_4. | [ELECTION STUDY NOTES] - ROMANIA (2012): IMD5022_1 & IMD5022_3 | | The threshold for political parties to obtain seats is 5% of the | valid votes. However, it is higher for electoral alliances | comprising of more parties: | - A threshold of 8% of valid votes for coalitions | of 2 parties. | - A threshold of 9% of valid votes for coalitions | of 3 parties. | - A threshold of 10% of valid votes for coalitions | of 4 parties or more. | Alternatively, a party that wins six district seats in the | Chamber of Deputies or three district seats in the Senate | may also receive seats. | [ELECTION STUDY NOTES] - SOUTH AFRICA (2009): IMD5022_2 | | South Africa is a one-tier (segment) system. Thus, South Africa | (2009) study has been coded "97.

However, while a candidate | standing in tier 1 ('electorate vote') may have an endorsement | from another party, it is usually tacit rather than direct and | usually the main party of the candidate is the one that appears | on the ballot paper. Therefore, IMD5040_2 has been recoded to | 1.

OTHER. However, multi-party endorsements are not | permissible in Portugal. Parties might run on a joint list with | a shared label, but have to register as a pre-electoral coalition | if they wish to do so. That joint list then shows candidates | from the corresponding political parties that integrate the | coalition. Therefore, IMD5040_2 has been recoded to | 7.

Thus, Greece 2012 and 2015 studies are set to 50.00 for | IMD5045_3. | ELECTION STUDY NOTES – ESTONIA (2011): IMD5045_3 | | The Estonian parliament consists of 101 members elected via 12 | multi-member districts. Seats are allocated across three tiers. | The first tier involves seats allocated by personal mandates | determined by Hare quota. Candidates are awarded a seat if their | vote surpasses the quota. Here the average district magnitude | value is 8.42 (101/12). The second tier is the allocation of | seats based on the party list. Seats are awarded to | parties/coalitions based on the number of times the | party/coalition exceeds the district's quota. The third tier is | compensatory seats between the national lists of | parties/alliances whose candidates obtained at least 5% of the | national vote or three candidates. As the second and third-tier | magnitudes vary in each election, these values (IMD5045_2 and | IMD5045_3 respectively) are set to "999. MISSING", with the | average district magnitude for Estonia reported in IMD5045_1. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- IMD5046_1 >>> TRANSFERABLE VOTES - LOWER - 1ST SEGMENT (TIER) IMD5046_2 >>> TRANSFERABLE VOTES - LOWER - 2ND SEGMENT (TIER) IMD5046_3 >>> TRANSFERABLE VOTES - UPPER - 1ST SEGMENT (TIER) IMD5046_4 >>> TRANSFERABLE VOTES - UPPER - 2ND SEGMENT (TIER) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Are the votes transferable? Definition: In systems with preferential voting, a voter can express a list of preferences. For example, votes can be cast by putting a '1' in the column next to the voter's preferred candidate, a '2' beside their second favorite candidate and so on. Votes are counted according to the first preferences and any candidates who have achieved the predetermined quota are elected. To decide which of the remaining candidates are elected the votes are transferred from candidates who have more than the necessary number to achieve the quota and from the candidate with the least number of votes. An example of this is the election in Ireland in 2002. .................................................................. 1. YES 0. NO / NO PREFERENCE VOTE SYSTEM 7.

PARLIAMENTARY REGIME 2. MIXED REGIME 3. PRESIDENTIAL REGIME 9. MISSING | VARIABLE NOTES: IMD5048 | | Source: Publicly Available Sources and Cheibub, Jose Antonio. | 2007. "Presidentialism, Parliamentarism, and Democracy". | New York. Cambridge University Press. | | In CSES IMD, classifications of political regimes mainly rely on | the following decision rule as presented by Cheibub, 2007: | | A. The system is parliamentary either (i) if there is no | independently (indirectly or directly) elected President or (ii) | if there is an independently (indirectly or directly) elected | President but the government is not responsible to the President. | B. The system is mixed either if there is an independently | (indirectly or directly) elected President and government is | responsible to the President. | C. The system is presidential if the government is not | responsible to the elected legislature. | | NOTE: Responsibility refers to whether the survival of the | executive depends directly on legislature (i.e. vote of | confidence). | | However, researchers are advised that in a small number of | cases, codings employed in IMD diverge from regime | classifications as suggested by Cheibub. We detail these | instances in ELECTION STUDY notes below. | Further, all polities included in IMD are classified according | to the above coding scheme, irrespective of their democratic | status. Researchers interested in democracy ratings may | refer to IMD5050_ (Freedom House) or IMD5051_ (Polity IV). | | Data on IMD5048 were originally not included in MODULE 1 and | MODULE 2, but were now collected for these election studies for | the CSES IMD. | | The corresponding variables in the Standalone CSES Modules are: | MODULE 1: Not included (See VARIABLES NOTES above) | MODULE 2: Not included (See VARIABLES NOTES above) | MODULE 3: C5054 | MODULE 4: D5054 | POLITY NOTES - FINLAND: IMD5048 | | Classifying the Finnish executive power is subject to some | controversy. In the CSES Standalone Modules and in IMD, | Finland is coded as 2. MIXED REGIME, although Cheibub | classifies it as parliamentary. | Some key features of the Finnish system that distinguish | it from a traditional parliamentary system are that by | constitution a) the President is popularly elected by direct | vote for a fixed term of six years, and for no more than two | consecutive terms of office; b) the President can, on | recommendation of the Prime Minister, dissolve the legislature; | c) the President can veto legislature, though parliament can | override the presidential veto with a simple majority; and | d) the President may issue decrees that have the force of law. | Nonetheless, it has been argued that Finland, after | constitutional reforms in the 1990s works in practice as a | parliamentary system. | POLITY NOTES - ICELAND: IMD5048 | | The coding of Iceland on IMD5048 is subject to various | interpretations, with different sources providing diverging | assessments (DPI classifies it as parliamentary and Matt Golder | considers it semi-presidential). | In the CSES Standalone Modules and IMD, Iceland is classified | as 1. PARLIAMENTARY REGIME, although Cheibub classifies it as | semi-presidential. | While Iceland does have a popularly elected President, who does | have powers under the Icelandic constitution to dissolve | parliament, submit a bill to parliament, and exercise emergency | powers, the powers exercised have varied depending on the | particular person occupying the Presidency. Accordingly, the | position is largely considered ceremonial. | The fact that Presidential elections often go uncontested | (e.g.: 2000 and 2008) highlight this. Therefore, CSES classifies | Iceland as a parliamentary system. | [POLITY NOTES] – PORTUGAL: IMD5048 | | Portugal's regime type is coded inconsistently in the | Standalone Modules 3 and 4. While the Portuguese 2009 study | was coded as a mixed regime, the Portuguese 2015 study was coded | as parliamentary. | Following Cheibub (2007), Portugal is regarded as 2. MIXED | REGIME in IMD, as Portugal's President is directly elected | and the government is accountable to both to parliament and to | the President (Article 190 of the constitution). | [POLITY NOTES] – SOUTH KOREA: IMD5048 | | South Korea's regime type is coded inconsistently in the | Standalone MODULES 3 and 4. While the country is coded as | parliamentary for 2008 (MODULE 3), MODULE 4 classifies it | as Presidential regime. | The IMD follows both Cheibub and MODULE 4 in categorizing | South Korea as 3. PRESIDENTIAL REGIME. Apart from the | President being directly elected (Article 67 of the | constitution), parliament is not empowered to remove the | government from office, but may only pass a formal | recommendation for removal (Article 63). Although the | National Assembly may impeach ministers (Article 65), that | impeachment equals a suspension, with the final decision laying | with the Constitutional Court. | [POLITY NOTES] - TAIWAN (2012): IMD5048 | | Taiwan's regime type is coded inconsistently in the | Standalone MODULES 3 and 4. While Taiwan is coded as | Presidential for 2008 (MODULE 3), MODULE 4 classifies the | country as a mixed regime. | In IMD, Taiwan is coded as 2. MIXED REGIME, following the | MODULE 4 classification, although the constitution provides | for the direct election of a president. Our coding decision is | based on the assessment that executive Yuan is responsible to | the legislative Yuan, provided that the legislative Yuan is in | session, its members have the right to interpolate the | President of the Executive Yuan, and Ministers and chairmen of | the Commissions of the said Yuan (Article 57 of the | constitution). However, the legislature cannot vote no | confidence in the government and can be dissolved by the | President. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- IMD5049 >>> AGE OF CURRENT REGIME --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The number of years since the most recent regime change or the end of transition period defined by the lack of stable political institutions .................................................................. 000-500.
