This data set contains the data necessary to replicate Table 1 in James D. Fearon and David D. Laitin, Ethnicity,Insurgency, and Civil War, _American Political Science Review_ 97, 1 (February 2003):75-90. A few additional variables are included relevant to claims made in the paper. See Fearon and Laitin, Additional Tables for Ethnicity, Insurgency, and Civil War, at http://www.stanford.edu/group/ethnic/ for more information on the data contained here.
Interstate, CIVIL and extrastate wars, by nation year, when multiple wars then only consider largest (by deaths)
This is replication data for James D. Fearon, Primary Commodity Exports and Civil War, Journal of Conflict Resolution, August 2005. Here are some notes on variable definitions: (1) The prefix i (as in isxp ) indicates an interpolated version of a variable not coded for all years in the original CH data set on which this is all based (e.g., sxp was coded at five year intervals). In some cases, however, such as ietdom or igeogia, there is virtually no temporal variation in the original variable so interpolation means simply repeating the given value into all years (much as in the CH original data, which is done at 5 year intervals). (2) l as a prefix means logged. (3) l as a suffix means lagged one year. For lagged variables the first year in the series is retained.
