FISTS

The Fistfights in parliamentary Sessions Time-Series (FISTS) is a database of cases of physical violence in national legislatures. Version 1.0 was introduced in the article "Explaining Physical Violence in Parliaments", co-authored with Wang Leung Ting.

We strive to update the dataset on a regular basis. The current version (3.0) was published on 12 January 2024 and can be downloaded from the Harvard Dataverse or here. It is licensed under the Creative Commons license CC BY-NC-SA 4.0.
