The MNCs Data Project
Summary: Records operations of ~23k multinational companies on an annual basis (1993-2018). The structure of the dataset permits identifying FDI initiation, changes in firms' FDI positions, and FDI termination. It also allows analysts to study MNCs' FDI networks as a whole, and to account for the interdependence among their constituent parts (i.e. host sites). |
The WorkR Data Project
Summary: Measures government provision of seven distinct worker rights in law and practice, respectively. Utilizes a standards-based coding scheme derived from ILO recommendations. Covers all countries of the world on an annual basis (1994-2010). The data can be used to analyze variations in labor laws, labor practices, and the "gap" between them.
