Index of Service Trade Policy Barriers to Education Services and Import of Education Services for 55 Countries from 2008 - 2017"

The trade volume of educational services data from 2008 to 2017. This data is sourced from the TisMoS dataset published on the WTO official website, which provides import and export values for all four modes of service trade.The Policy Barrier Restrictiveness Index is derived from the WTO's STRI (Services Trade Restrictiveness Index), which measures the trade policy barriers for services. Each policy's level of restrictiveness is scored on a scale from 0 (completely open) to 100 (completely restricted). The STRI covers 23 service sectors, including banking, retail, and professional services. Mode 2 pertains to consumption abroad, and typically a country does not impose any restrictions on this mode; therefore, the STRI provides an overall restrictiveness index as well as specific indices for Modes 1, 3, and 4, but not for Mode 2. By matching the TisMoS dataset with the STRI dataset, 55 countries with high-quality data are selected as the research sample.Data of Economic Size (GDP)、 Economic Growth Prospects (GDPgr)、Population Size (Pop) are sourced from the World Bank. Global Peace Index is from The Economist magazine.
