📢 New blog by @halvardl.bsky.social & @bdecarvalho.bsky.social - Status and Resources in Polar Politics

Possession remains the bedrock of polar politics. Denmark’s hold over Greenland is not justified by profits... but by the international weight it carries. 🔗https://bit.ly/3Ih0OzL

IR101 says anarchy leads to balance of power. What if it’s the other way around? My new ISQ article (OA!) rethinks two core IR concepts through conceptual history
Anarchy Is What the Balance of Power Made of It: Two Core Concepts and the Public/Private Distinction in International Relations
Abstract. In this article, I question a familiar assumption in International Relations (IR): that the balance of power and anarchy are mutually reinforcing

Looking for some light summer reading? The below, co-written with @bdecarvalho.bsky.social is ready for pre-order. While the blurbs are outstanding, we will merely note that is is surely one of the most affordable introductions to International Relations out there! www.e-elgar.com/shop/gbp/adv...

Conceived at Baltimore 2016, it's fitting that our special issue Status Symbols in World Politics is out in time for #ISA2025! The intro makes case for why status symbols warrant sustained attention in IR & develops a framework for studying them 🧵 1/: journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10....

Det er ingen geopolitiske grunner til at Trump skal ønske å ha kontroll over Grønland, skriver @halvardl.bsky.social, @bdecarvalho.bsky.social og @indraoverland.bsky.social i denne kronikken i @aftenposten.no.

Dette handler om at Trumps politiske modus operandi er realitystjernens.
Trump improviserer geopolitikk. Og pressen applauderer. | NUPI
Den viktigste grunnen til at Donald Trump igjen foreslår å kjøpe Grønland, er at hans politiske modus operandi er realitystjernens, skriver forfatterne av denne kronikken.
