Replication Data for: Who Deserves European Solidarity? How recipient characteristics shape public support for international medical and financial aid during COVID-19

International solidarity is indispensable for coping with global crises; however, solidarity is frequently constrained by public opinion. Past research has examined who, at the donor side, is willing to support European and international aid. However, we know less about who, at the recipient side, is perceived to deserve solidarity. The article argues that potential donors consider situational circumstances and those relational features, which link them to the recipients. Using factorial survey experiments, we analyse public support for international medical and financial aid in Germany during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our results show that recipient countries’ situational need and control, as well as political community criteria, namely group membership, adherence to shared values, and reciprocity, play a crucial role in explaining public support for aid. Important policy implications result: on the donor side, fault-attribution frames matter; on the recipient side, honouring community norms is key to receiving aid.
