A brief piece by me in E-IR on the shift from hegemony to primacy heralded by the U.S. National Security Strategy. There’s a _lot_ going on in that document but I think that the explicit abandonment of hegemony for primacy is perhaps the most important. www.e-ir.info

Now out at Current Psychology (with dozens of co-authors): The COVID-19 pandemic was stressful for everyone, but women disproportionately bore its emotional burdens. However, this gender gap was not the same everywhere. Why did it vary? link.springer.com/article/10.1... 🧵

In the olden days Twitter helped me create a network of mentors/mentees with women and minority scholars. If we knew each other there or have just met here and you think your work on transitional/epistemic justice, norms, could benefit from my thoughts, let me know. It's my favorite kind of work.

🙋‍♂️I've got an article in the new issue of Millennium: Journal of International Studies. It's about the intimate relationship between liberalism and war and you can find it published open access through the link below.

Please join us for an what I hope will be an interesting discussion on academic freedom and professional associations!
