This article reviews and summarizes current reproduction and replication practices in political science. We first provide definitions for reproducibility and replicability. We then review data availability policies for 28 leading political science journals and present the results from a survey...

Mitigating climate change requires countries to provide a global public good. This means that the domestic cleavages underlying mass attitudes toward international climate policy are a central determinant of its provision. We argue that the industry-specific costs of emission abatement and...

Negotiating climate change is a bargaining game between the parties involved. Understanding convergence and asymmetries of the states' unveiled positions is therefore crucial to make sense of the outcomes of such international negotiations. I contribute to the exploration of decision-making...

In recent years, a variety of efforts have been made in political science to enable, encourage, or require scholars to be more open and explicit about the bases of their empirical claims and, in turn, make those claims more readily evaluable by others. While qualitative scholars have long taken...

How do crises affect trade policy? We reconcile starkly diverging accounts in the literature by showing that economic adversity generates endogenous incentives not only for protection, but also for liberalization. We first develop formally the mechanisms by which two features of shocks -...

In ethnically ranked societies, the gains from trade hold redistributive implications for members of different ethnic groups. In this paper, we argue that trade provides new avenues of economic advancement for individuals belonging to ethnic groups that have historically been excluded from...

Water is essential for human life, yet even democratically elected governments fail to provide it to all citizens. Why? We theorize that for water access to materialize, bureaucratic hurdles and politician inertia need to be jointly overcome. We further posit that identity politics moderates...

Debates about transparency standards in social science research often lack specificity, mischaracterize the status quo, or stress the value of replication. These debates often talk past each other and provide limited practical guidance for qualitative and multi-methods research. Focusing on...
