A brief overview of the evolution of peace and rivalry for the 1900-2015 period is presented. Peace in the international system has increased over time, with a decline in rivalries and an increase in security communities being the most notable findings. The article concludes with a discussion of how the peace data might be used to address new questions in international relations research or reconfigure existing ones.","producer":"Diehl et al.","citationFull":"Goertz, G., Diehl, P. and Balas, A. 2016.
