Notes: The data for CSSR, USSR and Yugoslavia are constructed by taking the values for all the countries
that previously constituted these countries before the separations in the early 1990s. The GDP series
are taken from the Groningen Growth and Development Center dataset already mentioned in the
introduction, and the SO 2 emissions series are from Stern (2006).
All variables are used in logarithms in the econometric analysis
