We estimated quartiles for each year for the whole set of countries. Then we assigned the membership to a quartile based on the value the country has in the respective year. As we are estimating the quartiles separately for every year, and assigning the membership in a quartile separately, we have – in theory – a highly dynamic measure that is adapting to the overall evolution of the rule of law globally. | We estimated quartiles for each year for the whole set of countries.

Coding rules
We take the Rule of law index from V-Dem as another dimension of constructing our Cultural Spheres Dataset. According to V-Dem this index measures to what extent laws are “transparently, independently, predictably, impartially, and equally enforced […]” (Coppedge et al. 2019a, 269). The index, furthermore, includes measures on the extent of compliance with the law by government officials. We aim at operationalizing the value of what is called “Rechtsstaat” (constitutional state or rule of law). As with other political dimensions in our dataset we see this indicator as a manifestation of power struggles of a society against the state. These power struggles are driven by cultural values concerning obedience, trust in authority and equality of societal groups before this very authority. The index itself is a composite of several indices and ranges from 0-1 while covering a timeframe of 1789-2018. We estimated quartiles for each year for the whole set of countries. Then we assigned the membership to a quartile based on the value the country has in the respective year. As we are estimating the quartiles separately for every year, and assigning the membership in a quartile separately, we have – in theory – a highly dynamic measure that is adapting to the overall evolution of the rule of law globally.
