Partners and number of agreements. 520 Treaties and agreements are powerful foreign policy tools that the United States uses to build and solidify relationships with partners and to influence the behavior of other states. As a result, the overall U.S. portfolio of treaties and agreements can offer insight into the distribution and depth of U.S. commitments internationally, including its military commitments and 'presence' in a given country or region. However, despite their importance, there is currently no comprehensive record of current or historical security-related treaties signed by the United States that can be used for empirical analysis. To address the shortcomings in existing datasets and indexes to contribute to the study of U.S. security treaties and agreements, we have developed a new, more comprehensive treaty database that will enhance the ability of researchers to study the full portfolio of U.S. security agreements. This report discusses our approach to data collection and coding and also presents a summary of the database's content. Its appendixes define each individual variable used in the analysis. The database was developed as part of a larger project focused on estimating the economic value of U.S. military presence overseas. In the context of this larger project, the treaty database provided an alternative way to measure 'military presence.' In addition to using numbers of troops as a measure of presence, we also used numbers of security- related agreements, drawing on the information in the treaty database described in this report. This measure provided us with additional insight into the value and role of U.S. engagement and operations in overseas areas. 546 English. 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF cover page (RAND, viewed January 12, 2015). 590 JSTOR|bBooks at JSTOR Open Access 630 00 Database of U.S. security treaties and agreements.|0https: //id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2014070220 630 7 Database of U.S. security treaties and agreements.|2fast |0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/2058740 650 0 National security|xLaw and legislation|zUnited States |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008108245 |xLegal research.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects /sh99005420 650 0 Status of forces agreements|zUnited States|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2010114059|vDatabases. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001528 650 0 Information storage and retrieval systems|xTreaties. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2021001163 650 0 Information storage and retrieval systems|xStatus of forces agreements|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects /sh2021001102|zUnited States.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n78095330-781 650 7 National security|xLaw and legislation.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1033727 650 7 Legal research.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/995522 650 7 Status of forces agreements.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1132174 650 7 International relations.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/977053 650 7 Information storage and retrieval systems|xTreaties.|2fast |0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/2026958 650 7 Information storage and retrieval systems|xStatus of forces agreements.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 2026900 651 0 United States|xForeign relations|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85140058|vDatabases.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001528 651 0 United States|xForeign relations|vTreaties.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85140111 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Databases.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411643 655 7 Treaties.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423868 655 7 Databases.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ genreForms/gf2014026081 655 7 Treaties.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ genreForms/gf2011026707 710 2 Project Air Force (U.S.)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n85368122 710 1 United States.|bAir Force.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /names/n79126811 710 2 Rand Corporation.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n78083407 830 0 Technical report (Rand Corporation) ;|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n2005069635|vRR-736-AF. 856 40 |uhttps://www.jstor.org/stable/10.7249/j.ctt14bs4zn |zOnline eBook.
