      abstract = {Initiated in 2002, the International Environmental  Agreements Data Base (IEADB) catalogs the texts,  memberships, and design features of over 3,000 multilateral  and bilateral environmental agreements. Using IEADB data,  we create a comprehensive review of the evolution of  international environmental law, including how the number,  subjects, and state memberships in IEAs have changed over  time. By providing IEA texts, the IEADB helps scholars  identify and systematically code IEA design features. We  review scholarship derived from the IEADB on international  environmental governance, including insights into IEA  membership, formation, and design as well as the deeper  structure of international environmental law. We note the  IEADB’s value as a teaching tool to promote undergraduate  and graduate teaching and research. The IEADB’s structure  and content opens up both broad research realms and  specific research questions, and facilitates the ability of  scholars to use the IEADB to answer those questions of  greatest interest to them.},
