International Data Resource Center (IDRC) from ICPSR

International Data Resource Center (IDRC)

From ICPRS web site:

"As the international community is drawn closer together through the phenomenon of globalization, access to international data has become critical for scholars and researchers around the world. Finding reliable data sources that reflect international dimensions can be difficult. In an effort to meet the growing demands for international data, the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR) has created the International Data Resource Center (IDRC). The IDRC acts as a clearinghouse for international data housed at ICPSR."

The site also includes an interactive map feature that allows you to Browse data by country.
