Notable Recent Changes to Site
Teaching: Added my tentative 2019-2020 teaching schedule (October 2018).
My Research: Added 2017 ISA-Hong Kong paper on issue linkage between territorial and identity claims, 2017 Hensel/Frederick ISA paper on territorial integrity, 2017 territory/issues review chapter from Bill Thompson's Encyclopedia of Empirical IR Theory, 2017 Frederick/Hensel/Macaulay JPR article describing the ICOW territorial claims data, 2017 Hensel/Mitchell CMPS article on the evolution of the ICOW project, 2016 Hensel/Krastev paper on local residents and territorial claims, 2016 Hensel/Macaulay ISA paper on identity claims, and 2015 Hensel/Macaulay irredentism paper.
My Data: Released version 1.30 of the ICOW Historical State Names data (November 2018), version 1.10 of the ICOW Colonial History data (November 2018), and version 1.02 of the ICOW Territorial Claims data (December 2016). Updated the ICOW General Coding Manual to reflect the addition of identity claims (December 2018).
Other: Updated all site code from HTML 4.1 to full HTML5 compliance, added a SSL certificate so the site can use the more secure HTTPS rather than standard HTTP, and merged a number of substantive poli sci pages (most of which received few visitors per year anyway) into course-related pages where their material will be more useful (Summer 2018). Started working to verify all external links and to reorganize contents on the remaining pages (late 2018).
