Data for the Regional Authority Index (RAI) v.3. are available in five different aggregations. RAI-MLG contains the most disaggregated and most comprehensive coding. It provides estimates for all regional tiers and all differentiated regions across 95 countries. Four datasets aggregate this information to a higher level or focus on subsets of regions. A codebook accompanies each dataset. This is the codebook for RAI-MLG.

Table 1: Five RAI V.3 datasets
RAI-MLG Annual scores for each individual region or regional tier from 1950-2018. Each row breaks a region–year down into ten dimensions, two domains, overall RAI. This is the master dataset that has a comprehensive record of all scores at the most disaggregated level.
RAI-Country Annual scores for each country from 1950-2018. Each row breaks a country–year down in ten dimensions, two domains, and overall RAI.
RAI-Region Annual scores for the most authoritative regional tier from 1950-2018. Each row breaks a tier–year down into ten dimensions, two domains, and overall RAI.
RAI-Metro Annual scores for each individual metropolitan region or metropolitan tiers from 1950-2018. Each row breaks a metro–year down into ten dimensions, two domains, and overall RAI.
RAI-Indigenous Annual scores for each individual indigenous region or collective indigenous territorial arrangements from 1950-2018. Each row breaks an indigenous–year down into ten dimensions, two domains, and overall RAI.
A codebook accompanies each dataset. This is the codebook for RAI-MLG.

Unit of analysis The unit of analysis is the individual region which we define as a jurisdiction between national government and local government. We draw the boundary between local and regional government at an average population level of 150,000. This excludes the lowest tier of government, but allows us to capture intermediate governments, often arrayed at two nested jurisdictional levels between the local and national. We relax the population criteria for individual jurisdictions that stick out from a tier of government that meets the regional threshold, such as Greenland, or the Galapagos islands.
A regional jurisdiction may be part of a regional tier or self-standing. A regional tier may cover the entire territory or part of the territory. Jurisdictions that make up a regional tier may be contiguous or non-contiguous.
Special categories: indigenous and metropolitan governance An indigenous region is a general purpose jurisdiction created with the explicit purpose to provide governance for an indigenous people or peoples.1 A region is coded as indigenous when it meets the following criteria: a) it exists between the local level of government and the national level; b) the jurisdiction is codified in law. An indigenous region may or may not be contiguous, and it does not need to meet the population criterion.
A metropolitan region is a contiguous general purpose jurisdiction that combines one, two, or more cities and their surrounding municipalities to deal with issues stemming from conurbanization. A region is coded as metropolitan if it meets the following criteria: a) it exists between the local level of government and the national level; b) metropolitan jurisdictions within a country have on average a population of at least 150,000; and c) the jurisdiction is codified in law.
Differentiated regional governance Each region is evaluated on whether its jurisdictional status is differentiated from that of standard regions at its tier. This differentiated status is almost always reflected in a different
1 There is no generally accepted definition of an indigenous people. The UN permanent Forum for Indigenous Issues suggests the following: self-identification as an indigenous people; historical continuity with pre-colonial and/or pre-settler societies; a strong link to a territory and its natural resources; distinct social, economic, or political norms; a distinct language, culture, and beliefs; status as a non-dominant group of society; commitment to maintain and reproduce their ancestral heritage as a distinctive people (http://www.un.org/esa/socdev/unpfii/documents/5session_factsheet1.pdf). In practice, the definition varies widely across countries. In settler states colonized by Europeans, it is usually unproblematic to pinpoint indigenous people, but in Asia and Africa, where the majority of the world’s 250 to 600 million indigenous peoples live, it is often less clear where to draw the line and governments tend to exploit this gray zone to minimize their existence.

score on self-rule or shared rule from standard regions, or if there are no standard regions, in an anomalous status in the country.
A standard region is defined as follows:
• A standard region (S) is part of a regional tier. Standard regions have a uniform institutional set up. Hence, standard regions are scored in a tier (e.g. Changwat, Cantons, Länder), each of which has a separate entry in the dataset. Each year of evaluation has a separate row.
Our measure distinguishes three kinds of differentiated regions:
• An asymmetric region (Y) is embedded in a national tier, yet has distinctive authority on one or several dimensions of the RAI. Asymmetry is usually specified in one or more executive decisions, constitutional articles, or special clauses in framework legislation.
• An autonomous region (A) is exempt from the country-wide constitutional framework and receives special treatment as an individual jurisdiction. It operates mostly in a bilateral setting with the central state alone. The arrangement is laid down in a special protocol, statute, special law, or separate section of the constitution.
• A dependency (D) is not part of a standard tier, but is governed hierarchically by the central state. It has a separate government with no, or very little, authority.
Standard, asymmetry, autonomy, and dependency are mutually exclusive categorizations. All regions, including indigenous and metropolitan regions, are assessed on these criteria, and no region can have more than one categorization at a given time.
If a non-standard region becomes a standard region, it ceases to have a separate entry and is included in the standard tier. Conversely, a standard region that becomes non-standard acquires a separate entry from the year of its changed status.
Regional tiers and differentiated regions are evaluated on the same scale. We evaluate five dimensions of self-rule: institutional depth, policy scope, fiscal autonomy, borrowing autonomy, and representation. We evaluate five dimensions of shared rule: law making, executive control, fiscal control, borrowing control, and constitutional reform. There are two forms of shared rule. We code a region as having multilateral shared rule when its authority is contingent on coordination with other regions. We code a region as having bilateral shared rule when its authority is not contingent on coordination with other regions.
