Replication Data for Social Pressure in the International Human Rights Regime: Why States Withdraw Treaty Reservations

We study the conditions under which states withdraw reservations to human rights treaties. Using novel data on reservations and reservation withdrawals for the nine core international human rights treaties, our analyses reveal two factors that compel states to withdraw reservations: (1) pressure from peer states and (2) pressure from human rights treaty bodies conducting periodic reviews.

本研究旨在探讨国家撤回国际人权条约保留的适用条件。本研究采用针对九项核心国际人权条约的保留及保留撤回情况的全新数据集，经分析后发现，两类因素会迫使国家撤回条约保留：(1) 来自同侪国家的施压；(2) 来自开展定期审查的人权条约机构的督促。
