Extremist Voting Patterns Following Economic Crises

This replication package contains data and code for a study on the persistence of extremist voting after economic crises. It includes Python, Stata, and R code to reproduce all tables and figures from the associated Journal of Economic History paper. The main script execution takes approximately 10 minutes on a 2024 Apple MacBook Pro with an M4 chip.

Use Cases

• Analyze the relationship between economic crisis indicators and extremist voting patterns using the provided panel data.
• Replicate econometric models from the published paper using the included Stata, R, and Python code.
• Examine temporal persistence in radicalism data following economic shocks as defined in the study.

Strengths

• Directly supports a peer-reviewed publication in the Journal of Economic History.
• Provides full replication code in three common statistical languages (Python, Stata, R).
• Includes a documented execution time of approximately 10 minutes on a specified modern machine.

Limitations

• The specific dataset structure, including column names, row count, and file formats, is not described.
• The underlying data's temporal and geographic coverage is not specified.
• The license for data use and redistribution is unknown.
