Military Doctrines Dataset

The Military Doctrines dataset is a catalog of 820 National Security Strategy (NSS) documents spanning 112 countries from 1962 to 2025. The data are sourced from government websites and other online repositories in their original pdf format and are organized into machine-readable text and csv formats, which you can browse and download from this website.

The Military Doctrines project is led by J Andrés Gannon, Assistant Professor of Political Science at Vanderbilt University.
