Abstract

The use of quantitative methodologies in international relations research became popular during the Cold War. Researchers, universities and centers were financially supported by their respective governments to develop new techniques in the explanation of foreign political behaviors. In this context, a new approach revolving around the utilization of systematic data emerged apart from the traditional international relations research methodology. The datasets consisting of categorized numbers provided researchers with the opportunity to reconsider the common assumptions of mainstream structuralist theories by paving the way for analysis of the frequently repeated behaviors of states during their historical processes. In present times, these datasets, the numerical coding of state behaviors and the structure of systems based on numbers are used in a great number of fields of international relations. In this research, the utilization and accessibility of datasets are explained overall and an overview is made of certain datasets in particular.

Özet

Uluslararası ilişkilerde nicel metodolojilerin kullanımı, özellikle Soğuk Savaş döneminde popüler hale gelmiş ve birçok araştırma merkezi, üniversite ve araştırmacı hükümetler tarafından finansal anlamda desteklenmiştir. Devletlerin sıklıkla sergiledikleri davranışların belirli bir dönem temel alınarak incelenmesini içeren veri seti çalışmaları, uluslararası ilişkilerin ana akım teorilerinin de varsayımlarının sınanmasına olanak tanımıştır. Bu sayede klasik uluslararası ilişkiler metodolojisinin dışında, sistemli verilerin kullanımını da içeren bir yaklaşımın ortaya çıktığı görülmektedir. Devletlerin ve uluslararası sistemin yapısının, rakamları temel alarak ifadesini içeren veri setleri günümüz uluslararası ilişkiler gündeminde bulunan birçok alanda kullanılmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, yayınlanmış veri setlerinin kullanım biçimleri ile seçilmiş bazı veri setleri ve onlara erişim konusunu açıklanmaktır.
