0 | v2stfisccap | grapher/state_capacity/2023-10-19/state_capacity_dataset/state_capacity_dataset#v2stfisccap | 2 | minor | Based on the expert assessments by V-Dem. It captures the capacity of the state to fund itself through taxes that are of greater administrative complexity. It ranges from 0 to 4 (greater fiscal capacity). | This is the state fiscal capacity (`v2stfisccap`) variable from version 9 of the Varieties of Democracy project (Coppedge et al. 2019). The measure is a Bayesian item response theory measurement model based on a five-point ordinal scale (0-4) in which higher values indicate that the state has greater capacity to fund itself through taxes that are of greater administrative complexity. - 0: The state is not capable of raising revenue to finance itself. - 1: The state primarily relies on external sources of funding (loans and foreign aid) to finance its activities. - 2: The state primarily relies on directly controlling economic assets (natural resource rents, public monopolies, and the expropriation of assets within and outside the country) to finance its activities. - 3: The state primarily relies on taxes on property (land taxes) and trade (customs duties). - 4: The state primarily relies on taxes on economic transactions (such as sales taxes) and/or taxes on income, corporate profits and capital | [] |
