Regression output tables and an R replication script from an econometric analysis of parliamentary earmarks and municipal expenditure composition in Brazil. The files correspond to the final stage of a dissertation, organized into four analytical blocks for aggregate and functional decomposition specifications. The dataset was created by Caio Sousa dos Reis Silva and last updated on 2026-05-18.
Use Cases
- Reproduce econometric models based on the provided R script and output tables.
- Audit the two-way fixed effects estimation strategy described for earmark impact.
- Compare results across different earmark universes (Paid Value vs. Committed Value).
- Analyze municipal expenditure compositional changes based on the functional decomposition blocks.
Strengths
- Includes the main R script used for estimation, supporting full workflow reproducibility.
- Outputs are organized into four distinct analytical blocks for different specification types.
- Standardized file naming clarifies the treatment lag (T1) and control lag (W1) parameters.
Limitations
- Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
