Replication Data for: Toxic Speech and Limited Demand for Content Moderation on Social Media
No full textWhen is speech on social media toxic enough to warrant content moderation? Platforms impose limits on what can be posted online, but also rely on users' reports of potentially harmful content. Yet, we know little about what users consider inadmissible to public discourse and what measures they wish to see implemented. Building on past work, we conceptualize three variants of toxic speech: incivility, intolerance, and violent threats. We present results from two studies with pre-registered randomized experiments (Study 1, N=5130; Study 2, N=3734) to examine how these variants causally affect users' content moderation preferences. We find that while both the severity of toxicity and the target of the attack matter, the demand for content moderation of toxic speech is limited. We discuss implications for the study of toxicity and content moderation as an emerging area of research in political science with critical implications for platforms, policymakers, and democracy more broadly

Replication Data for: Territorial Autonomy and the Trade-Off Between Civil and Communal Violence
No full textThis collection includes all data, R and Stata scripts, and instructions to replicate all figures and tables included in the main article text, online appendix, and data supplement. It also includes the article's original data contributions: regional boundaries, territorial autonomy indicators, and ethnically-attributed non-state and one-sided violence. Finally, it includes code to combine the article's original data with additional external data, transform it, and create the analysis dataframes (including main independent and dependent variables).
Abstract: To safeguard peace in multi-ethnic countries, scholars and practitioners recommend territorial autonomy. However, there is limited cross-national research on how autonomy affects subnational ethnic conflict, and increasing concern that it redirects ethnic violence from the national to the subnational level. Addressing this gap, I argue that autonomy generates tensions over subnational government control and the distribution of local economic goods. However, whether these turn violent depends on ethnic representation in the central government. If groups are unequally represented, violent escalation is more likely due to information and commitment problems and subnational majoritarianism. To test these arguments, I provide new time-variant data on subnational boundaries, territorial autonomy, and ethnically-attributed violence. I conduct a systematic analysis of all multi-ethnic countries between 1989-2019, instrumental variables analyses, and tests of my argument's intermediate implications. My findings underline the importance of complementing autonomy with inclusive central governments to attenuate the risks of subnational violence

Replication Data for: The Power of the Anti-corruption Campaign: Evidence from Cigarette and Alcohol Consumptions in China
No full textLittle is known about the effects of the anti-corruption campaign on individual’s consumption behavior. Using the anti-corruption campaign launched in China as a quasi-natural experiment, this study investigates the causal effect of the anti-corruption campaign (punishment) on cigarette and alcohol consumptions between government officials and other individuals. We provide the first and direct evidence that demonstrates the effectiveness of the campaign with its significant and negative effect on the potential consumptions of government officials. Notably, these effects are less pronounced among individuals nearing retirement, presumably due to the diminished prospects for promotions relative to other individuals
