This page's content will soon be moved to a separate ICOW.org site, rather than being part of PaulHensel.org. The details of each data set will end up being split into separate pages for each one; this page itself will become much smaller and easier to follow.
Introduction
This is an effort to list publications and working papers that have used one or more of the Issue Correlates of War (ICOW) Project's data sets. Many of these projects have relied on the ICOW territorial claims, river claims, and/or maritime claims data sets. Others have used the ICOW colonial history or multilateral treaties of pacific settlement (MTOPS) data sets. Please let us know if you find any errors in this list, or if you know of any other papers that should be included here.
