Welcome to WeSISpedia, the collaborative codebook accompanying WeSIS. The aim of WeSIS is to provide the most comprehensive data base on social policies throughout the world since 1880. WeSIS includes data on social security schemes (Y) and explanatory variables capturing domestic conditions like policy legacies, political, economic and financial factors, information about the social structure and culture (X1). Reflecting different forms of interdependencies and relations among states, WeSIS further includes data about colonial dependencies, violent conflicts, political institutional linkages, economic relations, migration or forms of communication (X2).

The structure of WeSISpedia reflects the Collaborative Research Center's distinction of Y, X1 and X2. Every indicator that is part of WeSIS is documented in WeSISpedia. Furthermore, coding standards and harmonized country codes are recorded.
