Summary

This release makes the atlas's executable lever crosswalk, GDP regression, eta, uncertainty, source datasets, and known limitations directly inspectable in both the HTML atlas and print ebook.

Highlights

• Nine dedicated lever records expose global annual capital exclusions, source variables, thresholds, proxy choices, and caveats.
• Defines the NCM Isolated Entity as the focal country-year analytical unit, not a V-Dem field or a claim that countries are causally isolated.
• Discloses proxy reuse in the released component data: levers 3 and 6 use v2clkill; levers 4 and 7 use v2xcl_acjst.
• Reports the canonical population-weighted model: n=187, eta=0.305, robust p=0.00568, weighted R2=0.252, with the operational coefficient rounded to 0.30.
• Separates the strong cross-sectional GDP-level association from the non-significant 2023-2024 current-US$ growth check (R2=0.004, p=0.207).
• Adds official V-Dem and World Bank WDI guidance, distinguishing the published Full+Others v15 score source from the current v16 update workflow and documenting the missing source checksum as a replication boundary.
• Updates the Eurozone report and embeds its 27 pages after nation profiles and before evidence/data pages.
• Regenerated the complete 278-page ebook; page 8 retains the $15.87T global total.

Release Asset

The release intentionally contains only RTLDI_ATLAS_2026_ebook.pdf. The standalone modular and Eurozone PDFs remain reproducible repository build artifacts, not release attachments.
