I’m on the committee for this search and am happy to answer questions as well. Come join us at ND! ☘️

There is a broad emphasis on democracy, but we are eager for applicants working at the intersection of IR/IPE and domestic politics (e.g., the politics of deindustrialization and decarbonization, the economic drivers of populism, and so on). Deadline is 10/1. Feel free to reach out with questions!

Applications for our Visiting Fellowship are open @kellogginstitute.bsky.social, and I want to encourage folks of all ranks to apply! It is a tremendous intellectual community, and we are looking for postdoctoral as well as junior and senior faculty fellows kellogg.nd.edu/about-our-vi...

New research using African public opinion finds citizens support foreign aid conditions when they distrust their government & trust the donor. These findings reshape our understanding of accountability relations in global governance.
@rickyclark.bsky.social sky.social; @lindsayrdolan.bsky.social

We also find through an original survey in Kenya that individuals are highly knowledgable about the types of requirements different donors attach to aid. This challenges assumptions we tend to make in IR about individuals' rational ignorance on foreign policy issues.

We argue and show that Africans are more accepting of aid requirements when they distrust their government but trust the donor. In such cases, donor requirements are a welcome form of external accountability on the government.

Really exciting to see this article with @lindsayrdolan.bsky.social and Alexa Zeitz published @isq-jrnl.bsky.social. As aid is increasingly politicized, we examine how publics in recipient countries assess various conditions that are commonly attached to aid. academic.oup.com/isq/article-...

🧵 When the government announces that it will fire people for producing numbers that the government doesn't like, here is how our institutions should respond. (Whether they do is another story.)

This sounds batsh*t crazy but it's, quite literally, a straightforward & purely factual description of what's going on here

I gotta say I find a lot of AI discourse around higher ed very confusing. "if ChatGPT can write your essays is college even worth it?" did people think math teachers were assigning problem sets because *they* couldn't figure out the answers?

Is it a humanitarian disaster? Yes

But is it a geopolitical disaster? Also yes

But is it a financial disaster? Again, yes

If I had to sum up what I’ve learned from analyzing mountains of election data—and what Mamdani’s campaign exemplified perfectly—it’s this:

Stop moderating. Start energizing.

It's obligatory

Three things made the US a rich and powerful nation: the rule of law, its science & innovation system, and openness to foreign talent. Remarkable how Trump has taken a sledgehammer to all three. No enemy of this country could do more.

Kenneth Scheve of Yale University has been appointed the I.A. O’Shaughnessy Dean of the College of Arts & Letters by the University of Notre Dame President Rev. Robert A. Dowd, C.S.C.

He begins a five-year term as dean on July 1.

When does communication fail in international politics? In a new @intsecurity.bsky.social piece, Tyler Jost and I present some fresh theory and evidence on an enduring challenge for states — getting others to understand what they are trying to say

Trump with tariffs

How much of this romanticizing of factory jobs is really just nostalgia for a white and male breadwinner world of the past?

I have a request for you all as we celebrate @slangsonsports.bsky.social's birthday: Tell one person in your life today what makes them special to you. Be specific.

Then report back here and tell us how it felt. We can all make a better effort at this, together. open.substack.com/pub/lindseya...

As international organizations have proliferated, so too has cooperation between them. This book unravels the ties that bind them.
