Polity IV Country Reports 2010

The Polity IV Country Report series provides key regime data, regime trend graph, and a brief narrative description of executive recruitment, executive constraints, and political competition for each country covered by the Polity data series. The Polity IV Country Report format is no longer supported by the Polity Project and is no longer being updated. A new format has been developed for the Polity 5 data series that provides a chronological, detailed explanation of all changes in a country's Polity scores from 1946 (or its date of independence ) to the present. This new report format will increase the transparency of the data series and enhance understanding of both the particular application of  the Polity coding scheme to a country's "historical record" and the unique regime characteristics  and political dynamics of that country at any point in time during the contemporary Globalization Era.
