Visoka and Brajshori (2025) show that aspirant states like Kosovo use protean power—adaptability, innovation, and improvisation—to navigate barriers to recognition and gain partial legitimacy in international organizations. academic.oup.com/fpa/article/...

New open-access article in the Foreign Policy Analysis journal. It examines how aspirant states seeking membership in international organisations navigate, and even penetrate, the conservative multilateral order!

New book coming out in early 2026 with Oxford University Press!

After five years of collaboration, it is fantastic to see the book come to life!

Meine Rezension zu @gezimvisoka.bsky.social Buch “The Derecognition of States” ist soeben in @sudosteuropa.bsky.social Mitteilungen (04/2025) erschienen. Das Buch bietet eine wegweisende Analyse der Aberkennung als diplomatische Praxis, die Staaten mit begrenzter Anerkennung prägt.
