Description

This collection of datasets (31 in total), archived through the Digital Repository at the University of Maryland, comprises international public opinion surveys administered by WorldPublicOpinion.org (Program on International Policy Attitudes), primarily around 2008–2009. At a glance, these data offer a snapshot of how ordinary citizens across the world, including Azerbaijan, Russia, and Ukraine, thought about power, legitimacy, conflict, and cooperation at that time. Substantively, though, the datasets focus on core questions of international politics rather than domestic policy issues. Each dataset includes readable documentation and questionnaires, short summaries of the main findings.

To locate the dataset, proceed to https://drum.lib.umd.edu/home and search for 'WPON.' The links to the datasets are also provided in the review itself (see the pdf file).
