Replication Data for: Are Policy-Makers Responsive to Public Demand in Climate Politics?
<|begin_of_text|><|start_header_id|>system<|end_header_id|> You are a research archivist expert in dataset metadata. Answer the question truthfully.  <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>user<|end_header_id|> Here is the Description of a dataset. Description:'Normative theories of democracy agree that public demand should be the main guide in policy-making. But positive theories and related empirical research disagree about the extent to which this holds true in reality. We address this debate with an empirical focus on climate change policy. Specifically, we are interested in whether observable variation in public demand for climate change mitigation can help explain variation in adopted national climate policies. Using new data to approximate public demand, we estimate the responsiveness of policy-makers to changes in public demand in six OECD countries from 1995 to 2010. We find that policy-makers are responsive and react in predicted ways to variation in our opinion component of measured public demand, rather than to the mere salience of the climate issue.
