It covers all independent countries and most semi-sovereign polities and overseas colonies, protectorates, etc. within the 1789 to 2020 timespan. Scores have also been assigned to the units in the case of short-term foreign occupation. Scores for each indicator reflect the status of a country on the last day of the calendar year (31 December) and are not intended to reflect the mean value of an indicator across the previous 364 days. Coding decisions are based on country-specific sources.\n\nAll original coding has been done by Svend-Erik Skaaning. Svend-Erik Skaaning has developed the conceptual distinctions and cumulative logic associated with the lexical index in collaboration with John Gerring. The distinctions regarding modes of democratic transition and breakdown have been developed by Svend-Erik Skaaning, who has also developed the turnover variables. Henrikas Bartusevicius was in charge of empirical analyses and the coding linked to the inter-coder reliability test presented in the dataset paper (see below).\n\nThe dataset consists of 14 original indicators and two original indices. The LIED dataset offers indicators on whether legislative elections are on track (legislative_elections), whether (direct or indirect) executive elections are on track (executive_elections), whether multiple parties are able to run for legislative elections (multi-party_legislative_elections), whether there is universal male suffrage (male_suffrage), and whether there is universal female suffrage (female_suffrage),2 whether elections are genuinely contested (competitive_elections), whether political liberties in the form of freedom of expression, assembly, and association, are respected (political_liberties), whether countries experienced democratic transition in a given year (democratic_transition), the mode of democratic transition (transition_type), whether countries experienced democratic breakdown in a given year (democratic_breakdown), the mode of democratic breakdown (breakdown_type),whether elections led to a government turnover (turnover_event), and whether a period of competitive elections has been characterized by at least one government turnover (turnover_period). Finally, the data are used to construct two indices, i.e., the Lexical Index of Electoral Democracy (lexical_index) and an extended version called Lexical Index of Electoral Democracy+ (lexical_index_plus).", "producer": "Skaaning et al.", "citationFull": "Skaaning, Svend-Erik. 2021. \u201cLexical Index of Electoral Democracy (LIED) Dataset v6.0.\u201d Harvard Dataverse. https://doi.org/doi:10.7910/DVN/WPKNIT.", "versionProducer": "v6.6", "urlMain": "https://ps.au.dk/en/research/research-projects/dedere/datasets", "dateAccessed": "2025-05-29", "datePublished": "2024-05-15", "license": {"url": "https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/", "name": "CC0"}}, {"id": 1080, "title": "Population", "description": "Our World in Data builds and maintains a long-run dataset on population by country, region, and for the world, based on various sources.\n\nYou can find more information on these sources and how our time series is constructed on this page: https://ourworldindata.org/population-sources", "producer": "Various sources", "citationFull": "The long-run data on population is based on various sources, described on this page: https://ourworldindata.org/population-sources", "attribution": "Population based on various sources (2024)", "attributionShort": "Population", "urlMain": "https://ourworldindata.org/population-sources", "dateAccessed": "2024-07-11", "datePublished": "2024-07-15", "license": {"url": "https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/", "name": "CC BY 4.0"}}]}
