This publication package contains all datasets and R scripts necessary to reproduce the analyses reported in the paper "Dancing Around the Issue? Public Opinion and Strategic Vagueness in Parliamentary Speech" published in Legislative Studies Quarterly.

The main dataset was created using data from ParlEE data (Sylvester et al., 2023), Euromanifesto data (Schmitt et al., 2018), Parlgov data (Döring and Manow, 2020), an automated database of the European Parliament (Høyland et al., 2009), and Eurobarometer-based public opinion indicators from Ershova et al. (2024).
