1/ My piece for @ProSyn explains why understanding the persistence of the dollar-centric system requires looking beyond the dollar's reserve currency status & appreciating the network effects that keep the dollar on top of the currency hierarchy.

New paper with @degal and @patrickshea_ps!🔓
Ethnic politics matter for sovereign credit outcomes.
Using a new measure of ethnic political support, we show creditors punish right-leaning governments for relying on ethnic support, while left-leaning governments are rewarded

Now on-line @RIPEJournal: How does domestic politics affect sovereign credit risk? New article by Kathleen Brown, @degal and @patrickshea_ps on ethnic politics and sovereign debt: doi.org/10.1080/09692290.202…
Thrilled to see this out. This paper started as an informal side-project in my IR seminar as a way to teach the research process.
Congratulations to @ArtabeEugenia, @SamanthaChapa7, Leah Sparkman, and @patrickshea_ps. Their article "External Threats, Capacity, and Repression: How the Threat of War Affects Political Development and Physical Integrity Rights" is now online @BJPolS.

In the spirit of @matt_blackwell 's recent advice, I wanted the students to experience the research process from beginning to end. We collectively came up with an idea and saw the project through to publication.
Bernhard has put together a great team for his project. This is a great opportunity.
Postdoc position available at @UofGlasgow in Political Science. Join a dynamic team @UofGSPS working on the effectiveness of international organizations. More information on this @UKRI_news funded project: bernhardreinsberg.wordpress.…. Apply here: jobs.ac.uk/job/CSY202/resear… by 19/09.
I'm excited that my article with @Ulkar_Imamverdi is out in the newest issue of JCR. Main takeaway: Women leaders do not spend more (or less) on the military than men. 1/

One limitation of our study is that we cannot differentiate between the possibility that men and women have similar preferences on military spending from the possibility that women leaders adopt more hawkish policies to overcome gender stereotypes. 7/
But we think we offer an empirical framework for others to explore these issues further. A pre-print can be found here: dropbox.com/s/u5hhyegg3xnpxm…

I'm going to have this in my head all day.

Happy to see my article with @degal in the latest issue of @The_JOP
US Patronage, State Capacity, and Civil Conflict journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10…
We think this article should be of interest to many scholars given how important property rights, capacity, and conflict are to many research agendas.
