DEMSCORE
DEMSCORE, Research infrastructure for Democracy, Environment, Migration, Social policy, COnflict, and REpresentation, is a research infrastructure facility under construction, aimed at fulfilling research needs for various types of social sciences context data.
Via advanced e-infrastructure, users will be offered free access to harmonised and quality-controlled data plus full documentation across a large number of data sources.
DEMSCORE includes several large and well-known social sciences databases, creating major synergies and increasing the opportunities for research into complex societal connections relating to areas such as politics, public opinion, economics, conflicts around the world, climate and environment, social circumstances, and migration.
Examples of databases included in DEMSCORE are:
- Varieties of Democracy (V-Dem)
- Quality of Government (QoG)
- Uppsala Conflict Data Program/ViEWS (UCDP/ViEWS)
- Comparative Policy Laboratory (COMPLAB)
