Replication files for: Strongmen Cry Too: The Effect of Aerial Bombing on Voting for The Incumbent in Competitive Autocracies

The NATO bombing of Yugoslavia, which lasted from March 24, 1999 until June 10, 1999, was the largest air campaign in Europe since the bombing of Britain and Germany in World War II. The air raids lasted for 78 days and hit 108 out of 160 municipalities, excluding Kosovo and Montenegro. The bombing was spread out and largely aimed at military barracks, industrial facilities, transportation networks, and communication lines. This repo provides a novel dataset with information on over 1,000 targets in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, including the date, location, target type, and fatalities. Included is also R code for the replication of my article "Strongmen Cry Too: The Effect of Aerial Bombing on Voting for The Incumbent in Competitive Autocracies" that was accepted for publication at Journal of Peace Research.1999年3月24日至6月10日实施的北大西洋公约组织（North Atlantic Treaty Organization，简称北约，NATO）对南斯拉夫联盟共和国（Federal Republic of Yugoslavia）的轰炸行动，是第二次世界大战以来欧洲规模最大的空中作战行动。此次空袭持续78天，在不含科索沃与黑山的区域内，共袭击了160个市政区中的108个。本次轰炸范围覆盖广泛，主要打击目标涵盖军营、工业设施、交通网络与通信线路。本代码仓库提供了一套新颖的数据集，收录了南斯拉夫联盟共和国境内超过1000个打击目标的相关信息，涵盖袭击日期、地理位置、目标类型以及伤亡情况。此外，本仓库还附带了可复现其已被《和平研究期刊》（Journal of Peace Research）录用发表的论文《强人亦会落泪：空中轰炸对竞争性独裁制下现任执政者得票率的影响》的R代码。
