Variable: Dichotomous democracy measure (incl. missing for some countries)

QoG Code: (bmr_demmis)


Dataset: Boix-Miller-Rosato Dichotomous Coding of Democracy, 1800-2020

Description:

This is the same measure as democracy (bmr_dem), except it records an NA for countries occupied during an international war (e.g., the Netherlands 1940-44) or experiencing state collapse during a civil war (e.g., Lebanon 1976-89). The democracy variable instead fills in these years as continuations of the same regime type.
