The new special issue of EJIR is a wonderful and diverse look at "History and Theory in International Relations". The issue includes my article with @car on critical junctures in IR: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.…

"A theoretical and empirical triumph [that] has, indeed, brought war back in." Grateful for @tomlongphd's thoughtful review in @democ_journal and for the avenues he points to, on race and ethnicity especially, that I hope others take up.

Excellent piece here by Chrystia Freeland on the choice Canada and other historic U.S. allies must make between resisting Trump and "being a vassal, subject to Washington fiat — like the Venezuela of Delcy Rodríguez, only with snowdrifts and hockey."

“The certainties of the post-1945 order have all but vanished,” write @tomlongphd and @StewartMPatrick. To navigate today’s threats, the world’s smaller states should work collectively.

Very excited to have an essay published in Foreign Affairs for the first time, alongside the brilliant Stewart Patrick!
“The global public goods the United States provided were never charity; they were a winning wager that a relatively stable and open system would underpin U.S. alliances, partnerships, and prosperity,” write @tomlongphd and @StewartMPatrick.

How are changes in the global order, not least the unilateralism of the second Trump administration, shaping the options of smaller states? And what should they do about it? @StewartMPatrick and I offer our thoughts in @ForeignAffairs.

The 1826 Congress of Panama sought to resist the predations of great powers. It was as relevant then as it is now. foreignpolicy.com/2026/07/15…
My first appearance in the New York Times! Check out this thought-provoking piece on sovereignty, intervention, and occupation by Linda Kinstler. How do we understand the US-Venezuela relationship?

200 years ago, the first diplomatic conference in Western Hemisphere history responded to external threats. What can the Congress of Panamá tell us today, when a regional response to US threats is absent? New piece with @schulz_c_a in @ForeignPolicy:

Our paper was awarded the 2026 best article award from @isadiplomacy!
“Seeing the Berlin Conference from the periphery: Latin American reactions to imperialism elsewhere, 1884–85" was published in @GlobalHistJnl, written with @schulz_c_a.

Thanks to @Canning_House and organizer Laurence Whitehead of @NuffieldCollege for the invitation to talk about "republican internationalism" at the Second Canning House Latin American Academic Forum earlier this month.

If the Trump administration really wanted to weaken criminal groups and reduce violence in Mexico and Latin America, it would stop bombing small boats and go after the gun sales and trafficking on its own side of the border. nytimes.com/2026/03/17/world…
Why have Latin American small states retained their affinity for China's Belt and Road Initiative despite varying results? Alongside Zara Albright & Diego Telias, we argue that BRI offered discursive resources even when material benefits fell short.

📣How do secondary states in the Asia-Pacific enhance security and strategic autonomy in a networked strategic environment? Check out my new article @JPR_journal that answers this using a dataset of joint military exercises of the Asia-Pacific (1970–2024). academic.oup.com/jpr/advance…
Next week, I'll be at the @Canning_House Latin American Academic Forum discussing our @ahrcpress project and book-in-progress, Republican Internationalism. (@Harvard_Press, w. @schulz_c_a). Really looking forward to it!
