Measuring Different Types of War

Students in my International Conflict Course--

Here is an article in .pdf that describes several war datasets used by almost all the articles discussed in this class. Note the different types of wars, and the stregnths and weaknesses of the conceptualization of war based on battle-deaths. We'll be talking about this paper in Wednesday's class.

[NOTE: You may need to access the article from a UA computer or through a proxy server via the library website. And to answer the next question, no, I currently have no idea of how to do that. Use the comments bar if you have problems loading the article, and hopefully, another classmate can help you out.]
