What can the climate lockdown conspiracy teach us about the philosophical challenges of “fact checking”? Click here for my latest in the Harvard Misinformation Review: misinforeview.hks.harvard.edu/article/the-...

My latest working paper is now out with the CIGI Digital Policy Hub! This paper focuses on the possibility of Canada's quantum science and technology strategy contributing to alliance politics aims www.cigionline.org/publications...

I highly recommend this volume! A great collection of articles that adds to the repertoire of the newer instructor, helping to fill the general absence of systematic training.

AVAILABLE NOW “Teaching Political Science and International Relations for Early Career Instructors,” a collection of chapters on the unique challenges and opportunities facing early career instructors - co-edited with Misbah Hyder! doi.org/10.1007/978-...

That’s a wrap on classes for fall 2024! The headlines about the higher ed sector are often full of uncertainty and gloom, but this past semester has been another great reminder of how much I enjoy teaching - even at 8:30 on Monday mornings.

Nice to see the 2023 KCIS volume published - including my chapter on how shifts in security studies can improve academics’ engagement with security and conflict studies

Delighted to be at the KCIS conference today to present my research on quantum science and tech policy. #polisky

Forthcoming at @IntRelationsJ - a rereading of Hans Morgenthau’s critique of scientism in “Scientific Man Versus Power Politics” and “Science:Servant or Master” in light of recent quantum approaches to international relations theory.

A fantastic day in Waterloo with the Centre for International Governance Innovation (CIGI) Digital Policy Hub for the capstone conference for this term. My first working paper in the CIGI DPH series will be released in the coming weeks - stay tuned!

I wrote a book! Due out this June, “Weak Utopianism in Education” is the culmination of a multi-year project at the intersection of political theory and philosophy of education. www.taylorfrancis.com/books/mono/1...

Some great local news coverage of a couple new research projects that I will be leading at Queen’s! We will be examining issues related to emerging technology, climate change, and the Women, Peace, and Security Agenda. www.kingstonist.com/news/two-res...

Does Canada’s approach to quantum in security and economic policy live up to the government’s feminist branding? See my latest in the CDN Foreign Policy Journal: doi.org/10.1080/1192... polisky

Walking past the majestic Theological Hall (where I taught my first tutorial class) on my way to the Queen’s Teaching Development Day 2023

Looking forward to the start of phase three of my postdoc project tomorrow! This term, I am partnering with a selection of “case study courses” to take a deep dive into student and instructor perceptions of assessment and evaluation techniques! Polisky

This Fall, I will be the lead instructor on an interdisciplinary experiential learning course for fourth-year students across the Arts & Sciences at Queen’s. For more information on the “Standing Whale” project, check out the original announcement: www.queensu.ca/gazette/stor...

During CV updating, I realized that I have now peer reviewed over 50 journal articles. Do we celebrate reviewing milestones?

First post on the new platform is a good news story - it’s been a great summer for cherry tomatoes!
