Datasets

These are data sets which I and my various coauthors have produced.

—“Interstate Alliances, 1985-1992” (pdf)
This is not a machine-readable data set, but rather a document which describes changes in alliances from 1985-1992. It is meant to be used as a tool for updating the Correlates of War alliances data set, which codes alliances from 1816-1984.
