Datasets

Included on this page are datasets compiled by myself, research assistants and research colleagues.  The data may be downloaded and used by researchers as long as any use of the data is properly referenced as noted in the notes that go with each dataset.  I would be grateful if any errors spotted in the data are communicated to me.  I will try to answer any questions regarding the data if you email me.  All data I have collected under grants awarded by the UK Economic and Social Research Council is available at the ESRC Essex Data Arhive and is not available here.

Those involved in collecting the data include:
Chloe Cangardel, Helen Cannon, Norman Cooke, Torun Dewan, Keith Dowding, Gita Subrahamyam and Won-Taek Kang
