Replication data for: Causal Complexity & the Study of Politics
Listed in Harvard Dataverse
Theories that posit complex causation, or multiple causal paths, pervade the study of politics but have yet to find accurate statistical expression.
Description
To remedy this situation I derive new econometric procedures, Boolean probit and logit, based on the logic of complexity. The solution provides an answer to a puzzle in the rational deterrence literature: the divergence between theory and case-study findings, on the one hand, and the findings of quantitative studies, on the other, on the issue of the role of capabilities and willingness in the initiation of disputes.
It also makes the case that different methodological traditions, rather than settling into "separate but equal" status, can instead inform and enrich one another.
