ISA International Organization Section

Have you applied for our Workshop on Global South Perspective on International Organizations? The deadline is September 20th! Follow this link to learn more and apply: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

The committee also wants to give a special mention to another paper, "Who Keeps the Peace? Gendered Effects in UN Peacekeeping” by @skytheacademic

The committee found the paper to be theoretically innovative and empirically rigorous, and to make a strong contribution to our understanding of the IOs and how they are monitored. It was well argued and engagingly written.

At ISA2025 we honored several awardees: The Finkelstein Award Committee awarded the 2024 prize to @ruofan_ma for his excellent paper "Reporting Compliance: How ILO Reports Affect Respects for Labor Rights" Congrats again! 👏

We also want to extend an “honorable mention” to @ezgiyyildiz (Cal State Long Beach) for her book “Between Forbearance and Audacity” (Cambridge UP).

The book draws on her first-hand experience volunteering on the Greek island of Chios. The impressive ethnographic and qualitative research, informs her parsimonious account of how IO governance emerges out of the efforts of professionals navigating ambiguous and novel challenges

At ISA2025 we honored several awardees: Congrats again to Chadwick F. Alger Prize winner, @NKortendiek, European University Institute for her book, “Global Governance on the Ground: Organizing International Migration and Asylum at the Border” (Oxford UP) 👏

In #Chicago for the second @IO_Section_ISA pre-conference workshop on Global South perspectives on IOs at #ISA2025. With appreciation to @1GeorginaHolmes for the organization and the invitation. Thanks also to Thomas Tieku, @danaujoks @katiacoleman @ClaraEgger1 and Mona Saleh for their comments on my piece, as well as to a very engaged room of peers. I would be remiss not to acknowledge the support of @uOttawaHRREC and the organizers who made it possible for me to join in this spirited conversation as I work to move my piece toward the finish line.
