This follows a recent EUR-Lex update that saw the deletion of many 'deprecated' procedures from the search index. Most of these procedures are still available in CELLAR but cannot be accessed via the procedure search. [3/3]

EUPLEX dataset update
(available on https://t.co/AyqDCT9Aac)

We have just released a new version of the EUPLEX dataset. In addition to some bug fixes in the code base, the dataset now contains new legislative procedures up until 2023-01-03 and a new variable! [1/3]

[Maximilian Haag @max_haag]

The `eurlex_search` variable indicates whether a procedure is included in the EUR-Lex procedure search index: https://t.co/1OwZhtW5cH

How negotiators in EU trilogues use ‘constraint’ to gain concessions - new research from @max_haag @EUP_TheJournal https://t.co/Y1c9F2lQz1

[Julian Schuessler @julianschuess]

Very happy to teach "Using Directed Acyclic Graphs for Causal & Statistical Inference" again with @MarkusGFreitag :)
Expect: choosing control variables, post-treatment bias, sensitivity analysis, causal mediation, non-response bias, instrumental variables, and more!

[Ronny Patz @ronpatz]

For all the NLP/legal data/EU law nerds:

Looks like @eurlex has implemented some form of regular expressions/entity recognition to automatically create links in EU official documents whenever another EU act is mentioned in the text.

You can now dig into the EU law rabbit hole!

Conclusions? Looking at actual policy provisions to assess bargaining success can be a worthwhile endeavour when studying EU decision-making.

[Maximilian Haag @max_haag]

Why do we observe this pattern for the EP and not for the Council? Reasons could be manifold, but may include the (relative) transparency of EP intra-institutional proceedings vs the opaqueness of the Council and "teenage" EP vs "adult" Council negotiators.
