Asymmetric Mass Mobilization and Hungarian Electoral Data (2002–2010)

Laura Jakli (Comparative Political Studies Dataverse) published this replication package containing raw protest data and Hungarian electoral results for 2002, 2006, and 2010. The collection includes six R scripts and a specialized protest codebook to facilitate quantitative analysis of political mobilization and democratic stability in Hungary.

Use Cases

Strengths

• Includes a master R script to automate the full quantitative analysis
• Provides a specific protest codebook for standardized variable interpretation
