Post-Regime Change Trials Data Set

The PRCT is a transitional justice dataset focusing specifically (and exclusively) on prosecutions in contexts of transitional politics. The PRCT significantly improves on existing datasets by providing – for the first time – information on the quality of transitional prosecutions. Each set of transitional prosecutions is coded as either ‘Free and fair’ or ‘Flawed’ depending on the overall quality of their implementation. Please consult the Codebook for detailed explanations about the data and its associated files.
