After months of work, the HT Data team is launching its database on the Council of Ministers from 1952-2024.
We will be running a four part series mainly to look at:
1. Evolution of the council of ministers
2. Caste Inequality in COM
3. States, Parties and Caste
1st part is here
Self praise is always avoidable, but proud to launch @NishantTISS ‘s caste, state, party & portfolio dataset of all Council of Ministers since 1952 from @htTweets
data journalism team.
Months of work behind this. Today is a good day to get a subscription :-)
Incredibly honored and grateful to the award committee for this recognition! Also, indebted to my dissertation committee, @thaddunning, Jennifer Bussell, Alison Post, and @tedmiguel, without whom this wouldn't have been possible.
The Aaron Wildavsky Best Dissertation Award goes to Anirvan Chowdhury for "Religiously Conservative Parties and Women's Political Mobilization: Gender Norms, Party Activism, and Democratization in India." Honorable mention: Radha Sarkar for "Religion and the Politics of Gender."
