Eurasia Paper Meeting

Spreadsheet of NewsBank results: Here

Scales need to be standardized 0.2 or 0.1

Sequence needs to be Russian – Domestic – Western

Not enough domestic media sources for Hungary-Russia

Added “China/Chinese” and “Russia/Russian” for Hungary dyads

PAKS II should be in “RUS - HUN”

Fudan University should be in “CHN - HUN”

RUS-TUR has blank as last keyword

(It was supposed to be “BRICS”, has been corrected)

Eskom removed from RUS - TUR

Make sure keywords in the analysis align with keywords that we wanted (check google doc)

Can go through this manually:

Google Doc of country-specific keywords

About “Unnecessary words”:

Removed numbers, stopwords

For example: Previous HUN keywords compared to new HUN keywords

Easiest solution: use GDELT results for this

See spreadsheet - it has both NewsBank and GDELT results together

If there is anything “weird” with GDELT results, we can manually search for those keywords on NewsBank data

Methods section google doc

Not clear: How much of GDELT are we using?

Replace Tables with NewsBank tables instead?

No way to separate “Cooperation” vs “Other” events from NewsBank

Finish analysis/paper soon

Brief discussion about drugs paper in JCR

Question about tax docs

Anything else?
