The APSA Law and Courts section dataverse contains data from research and surveys on law, courts, crime, and criminal justice. This data is drawn from the entire IQSS Dataverse Network, including data from the ICPSR, the Roper Center, the Murray Research Archive, the Odum Institute, and dozens of other dataverses. Whenever a publisher releases new data into the IQSS dataverse network, it will automatically be included, if the new data is published under a subject heading related to that field.
