Leveraging state-of-the-art PETRARCH-2 software, the Cline Center has produced Historical Phoenix Event Data which covers the period 1945-2015.  This data includes several million events extracted from 14 million news stories from the New York Times (1945-2005), the BBC Monitoring's Summary of World Broadcasts (1979-2015) and the CIA's Foreign Broadcast Information Service (1995-2004). It documents the agents, locations, and issues at stake in a wide variety of conflict, cooperation and communicative events in the CAMEO ontology framework. The link below provides access to these event datasets, as well as meta-data for the news sources used to produce the events.
