Errors and Updates

Unfortunately in the process of compiling large datasets, errors occasionally occur. We regret these errors – sorry.

We use this page to list the errors that have been pointed out to us. We have not corrected the data provided.

 

 

1) Duplicate observation in the leader data. There are several duplicate observations in the bdm2s2_basic_leader_list.dta file. They are listed in the table below. These duplicate observations also occur in the leader-year data: bdm2s2_leader_year_data.dta. Our thanks to Kristian Gleditsch for pointing this out.
