US-China Trade-War Measure Dataset
https://doi.org/10.5878/f88y-gs19
This data set compiles measures taken by the U.S. and China to escalate the trade war between 01-01-2018 to 15-11-2023. To collect these measures, we have utilised lists and timelines, and articles on the U.S.-China trade war from several academic sources, credible news outlets, primary sources, and reports from established research institutes. A measure in the trade war is defined as an action by China or the U.S. targeting only - or primarily - the other party to disrupt trade or other flows of money and/or commercial goods between the countries to further a political goal. The variables are of categorical nature, as we assess the specific type of action undertaken, be it a tariff, sanction, or ban.
