Listed on this page are references to data that researchers have used in carrying out empirical analyses of issues in international trade and investment. If you have a dataset that you think might be of interest to others, please provide the details. This page will hopefully streamline the data search process that many, particularly younger, researchers go through when starting a new project.

If you find these pages useful, we would appreciate knowing who you are. These pages would also benefit from any concordances or data that you would be willing to make publicly available. If you have found these pages useful, or have something to contribute, or have any requests, please e-mail Jon Haveman Thanks in advance for your time, interest, and data!
