Caption

While the histories of wars are well documented, data on militarized disputes that did not rise to the level of acts of war are often much scarcer. West Virginia University political scientist Vito D'Orazio (left) and doctoral student Jarret Deaton are part of an international effort to record those disputes and publicize them as they occur.
