Great question. I have not conducted this kind of research. But you might reach out to Tracey Koehlmoos (don't think she's on this platform) - she'd be more likely to know.

Folks, I'm very pleased to share a trio of recent, open-access, papers that investigate - and demonstrate - the relationship between military medicine and military effectiveness:

Following up on your reply 1+ year after the fact. Would love to connect on this question as I am returning to this paper now.

So many thanks to @ryangrauer.bsky.social for organizing this roundtable and to @jcaverley.bsky.social, Neta Crawford, Karin Warner, and Peter White for their extraordinarily thoughtful reviews.

Something I really appreciated about this conversation with @carnegiecouncil.org was the focus on values and agency in a time when it is all too easy to feel overwhelmed by the workings of the world.

Journeys is such a great program, one that has helped so many women in the field. I'm so sorry.

Conquest Is Back A peace deal in Ukraine could further normalize what was once taboo.

An obituary of sorts for the norm against territorial conquest. I’d be happy to be wrong.

Crowdsourcing: what literature do you recommend on democratic backsliding & armed conflict (intra or intrastate)? (am thinking of an analog to the democratization and war literature, but in reverse, but focusing on the process of regime change rather than "democracies & war" or "autocracies & war")

Yes, that's consistent with the coverage I've seen. Not surprising, but still depressing.

Trump’s verbal attack on Zelenskyy was shocking – and predictable In bullying Zelenskyy in the Oval Office, Trump showed his core beliefs.

Insightful piece from @profsaunders.bsky.social.

This bit caught my eye: "We also know what is unlikely to happen: GOP pushback." Leadership matters in both its presence and its absence.

I'm looking forward to reading the final version of Lemke's book, especially in this time when the prospect of violent state death has (unfortunately) been in the news.

I'm trying to put together a session for Intro IR on foreign aid and development, using the jigsaw method, where each student in a group brings a different piece of the "puzzle." What undergrad-friendly readings/podcasts/videos etc would you recommend that cover a range of contemporary cases?
