 0     regime grapher/democracy/2024-03-07/bmr/bmr#regime   2 minor           Identifies the political regime of a country using the classification by political scientists Carles Boix, Michael Miller, and Sebastian Rosato. Indicator generated from `democracy_omitteddata`. This is the same measure as `democracy`, except it records an NA for countries occupied during an international war (e.g., the Netherlands 1940-44) or experiencing state collapse during a civil war (e.g., Lebanon 1976-89). The `democracy` variable instead fills in these years as continuations of the same regime type to avoid coding democratic transitions at the end of military occupations. Researchers who want to code this differently can fill in the NA values in `democracy_omitteddata` with 0.

    "This indicator distinguishes between (electoral) democracies (score 1) and non-democracies (score 0).",
    "Democracies are political systems in which political leaders are selected under broad suffrage in free and fair elections."
