APPENDIX A

Version History

This appendix summarizes updates to the original dataset used in Wood and Thomas (2017). The changes detailed below reflect new information uncovered since the publication of the original dataset and additional cases included by expanding the coding back to 1964. For each case, I include the Dyad ID number from the UCDP dataset, the group name, the country in which the conflict was located, and the original and updated coding (“best”/”high”).

The full dataset is available at the author’s website (https://reedmwood.com).
