Diversity of Intra-Ministerial Structure in Germany, 1980-2015

This panel dataset contains information on the annual frequency, differentiation, and denominational variety and ambiguity of intra-ministerial units across German federal ministries from 1980 to 2015. The dataset is derived from the raw data of the German subset of the SOG-PRO project's dataset (www.sog-pro.eu). The document "variable description" describes the dataset's variables. Our paper "Mapping the Black Box of Intra-Ministerial Organization [...]" (related publication) explains the concepts and operationalizations they are based on.
