Theoretical Underpinnings of the Event Data Movement

Abstract

A review and critique of the international events literature is provided to assess the state of theorizing. The attempt is made to establish what are the basic underlying assumptions accepted by those who collect event interaction data. The conclusion of the review is that while the substantive interests of event data collectors seems developed well enough to characterize this body of literature as comprising a field, the theoretical basis of the field remains largely lacking.
