The package\ndownloads these search volumes provided by Google Trends and\nuses them to measure and analyze the distribution of search\nscores across countries or within countries. The package allows\nresearchers and analysts to use these search scores to\ninvestigate global trends based on patterns within these\nscores. This offers insights such as degree of\ninternationalization of firms and organizations or\ndissemination of political, social, or technological trends\nacross the globe or within single countries. An outline of the\npackage's methodological foundations and potential applications\nis available as a working paper:\n.", "License": "MIT + file LICENSE", "URL":
