Correlates of War Non-Directed Dyad-Year International Governmental Organizations (IGOs) Data
Source:R/data.R
cow_igo_ndy.RdThis is a non-directed dyad-year version of the Correlates of War IGOs data. I use it internally for merging IGOs data into dyad-year data.
Format
A data frame with 917695 observations on the following 4 variables.
ccode1the Correlates of War state system code for the first state
ccode2the Correlates of War state system code for the second state
yearthe year
dyadigosthe sum of mutual IGOs for which each state appears as a full member in a given year
Details
The data-raw directory on the project's Github contains additional information about how these data were generated from the otherwise
enormous dyad-year IGOs data provided by the Correlates of War project. Given the size of that data, and the size limitations of R packages for CRAN,
the data I provide here can only be simpler summaries. If you want specifics, you'll need to consult the underlying raw data provided on the Correlates
of War project.
