Provides access to coded election programmes from the Manifesto
Corpus and to the Manifesto Project's Main Dataset and routines to analyse this
data. The Manifesto Project <https://manifesto-project.wzb.eu> collects and
analyses election programmes across time and space to measure the political
preferences of parties. The Manifesto Corpus contains the collected and
annotated election programmes in the Corpus format of the package 'tm' to enable
easy use of text processing and text mining functionality. Specific functions
for scaling of coded political texts are included.
