Aloha,

I thought you would be interested in the web site I have set up on democide (genocide and mass murder), democracy, and war. This includes data, sources, statistical analyses, books, and articles. The democide data covers major pre-20th century episodes of democide, and all democide for all nations 1900-1987.

The site also covers theoretical and empirical material on the democratic peace--the fact that democracies do not make war on each other and minimize domestic violence, including democide. Statistical evidence is provided as well as links to research material.

You also will find chapters/articles covering the major empirical methods employed, such as on understanding correlation and factor analysis, and the nature of event data research.

Following are some of the contents:
