Provides functions for calculating various measures of foreign policy similarity or association commonly used in the study of international relations. These include Signorino and Ritter's S statistic (weighted and unweighted), Benati and Capurri's chance-corrected S statistic (A), Cohen's weighted kappa, Scott's pi, and Kendall's tau-b. The package facilitates the generation of dyadic similarity scores for empirical analyses and can also serve as an educational resource for understanding how such measures are calculated.
