IGO Membership Data

This is a directory that lists state affiliation with international organizations, over the 1815-2005 period. Data were collected by Timothy Nordstrom and Jon Pevehouse. The first file is a general affiliation file covering the 1815-2005 period on a state-year basis. The second file is in the IGO affiliation subdirectory and has one affiliation file for each year, with the abbreviation of the IGOs in the top row (check out the codebook for the full name and function of the IGOs). The third item provides a set of files that specify IGO affiliation by function.
