The NBP Country Profiles
The NBP Country Profiles are designed to make our research transparent and accessible. They explain our coding decisions, document the sources we used, and present key information from the NBP Dataset in an engaging narrative format. In doing so, the profiles make our work available to readers interested in how specific countries build national loyalties and manage diversity, as well as those curious about state policies directed toward particular groups—without requiring them to work directly with the dataset.
Glossary
In the NBP Glossary we clarify key terms used throughout the NBP Country Profiles and explains how we define and apply them in our research.
