Abstract

This article introduces a dataset on ministerial tenure in Papua New Guinea (PNG). The dataset, which spans from 1972 to 2017 and covers 15 governments and 321 ministers, is used to study ministerial duration and stability. To do this, two measures of ministerial duration and two stability indicators have been developed. These measures show that ministerial instability is high in PNG but it has not become worse over time. They also show, however, that instability has varied considerably between governments. Drawing on PNGʼs political history, this article provides a discussion of this variation by examining the circumstances of particular governments.

政治不稳定的隐藏维度:从1972年至2017年巴布亚新几内亚部长任期的观察

本文介绍了一个关于巴布亚新几内亚部长任期的数据集。该数据集从1972年到2017年，涵盖了15个政府和321位部长，用于研究部长任期和稳定性。为此，制定了两项部长任期衡量标准和两项稳定性指标。这些措施表明，巴布亚新几内亚的部长不稳定性很高，但并没有随着时间的推移而变得更糟。然而，这些数据也表明，各国政府之间的不稳定性差异很大。根据巴布亚新几内亚的政治历史，本文通过考察特定政府的情况，对这种变化进行了讨论。
