With the election around the corner, what does political science tell us about how the green transition affects voting?
Here’s a thread jam-packed with climate politics and elections research ⬇️
Let the record show that @AndiCJoe's talents extend far beyond the study of territorial conflict cc @Harvard_GovDept
The San Francisco Civic Symphony and @aksaigal gave this brilliant performance of my orchestral arrangement of Taylor Swift songs back in August. Thank you @SFCivicMusic for the incredible opportunity! youtu.be/NSsKoZcwwYI?si=LrUA…
I enjoyed discussing @drtwille's fascinating research today at @EuropeAtHarvard on populist governments' trust paradox: they try to "take back control" and cooperate outside of rigid institutional arrangements, but this requires trust that these governments can't create
Meet @drtwille, one of our Visiting Scholars from @goetheuni. Join him next week for a seminar on “Brexit and the Trust Paradox of Sovereigntist Internationalism”
🗓️Oct 23
⏰ 11:00am - 12:15pm

In a nail-biting event, the political theorists successfully defended their title at Gov Family Feud, @Harvard_GovDept's annual trivia competition.
Congratulations to @ju_marchant @AntoniaMaioni Sima Biondi Chris Hopson Dan Carpenter and walk-on Peter Hall on eking out victory!
And congratulations to Team IR (@RochelleSun @MichaelBCerny Tayla Ingles John Koo Jing Ling Tan Elias Tamer Shriya Yarlagadda Jamie Nakhla) who came an incredibly close second, but tragically underestimated the depth of Denmark's deepest lake (cc @MarcHvidkjaer)
A huge thanks to @adi_scheibler Jeeyoung Lee and Jenny Rossetti for helping co-organize, and to everyone for coming out! See you at the Bake-Off…

Delighted to share a new article in @ForeignAffairs by me and Jeff Friedman challenging the idea that presidential elections are all about "the economy, stupid." In 2024, as in the past, foreign policy is shaping the campaign - and vice versa: foreignaffairs.com/united-st…

Want US regulations on automation? Make the robots foreign. Then citizens want similar policy responses to globalization.

My latest for @ForeignPolicy analyzing Mexico's judicial overhaul with @m_ballesteross 👇
"We argue that the real problem with Mexico’s judicial overhaul is not just direct elections for judges but rather the specific design of those elections." 1/🧵

Not too late to apply for Harvard's junior IR search!
FYI - there's weird language in the ad about "≥ 1 letter must come from someone who has not served as the candidate's advisor" -- this apparently just means other committee members (we didn't write it!)
🚨 Harvard is hiring in IR! 🚨 Great faculty, great grad students, great undergrads, great vibes, and as a bonus, you can probably negotiate a joint appointment as a judge at next year's Great CGIS Bake-Off™ academicpositions.harvard.ed…
