Excited to see "Allies and Access" out in @IntOrgJournal! @carsonaust , @ProfPaulPoast , and I argue that access is an overlooked benefit of America's network of alliances/partnerships. Loss of access would mean loss of the ability to project mil and intel power around the world.

@nickdanderson has written an excellent book. He points out an overlooked phenomenon: great power conquest is sometimes driven by rogue actors on the periphery, not centrally directed, and he presents an elegant framework for understanding the drivers of “inadvertent expansion.”

Fantastic talk by @nickdanderson on his newest book Inadvertent Expansion.

SWAMOS was the single best experience I had in grad school, and it fundamentally altered the trajectory of my research. I also met great colleagues and friends. If you are a grad student, post-doc, or junior faculty member, I can't recommend it enough: siwps.org/programs/summe…

We worry a lot about the credibility of threats. We should worry more about the credibility of coercive assurance. Targets of coercion defy credible threats when they think they are ‘damned if they do and damned if they don’t’. doi.org/10.1162/isec_a…

New article with @mzmargulies out today in @jststs. We apply the IR cooperation concept of issue linkage to identify a success path in US efforts to convince security assistance recipients to reform their security sectors, with a close look at BiH tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Pleased to see my article w @ErikAHSand out in @TWQgw. As the US moves towards forthright commitment to Taiwan's defense, this article lays out what fighting China to defend Taiwan could mean for the US military, American people, and wider world.
Nick Anderson@nickdanderson

Congrats to my friends and colleagues @rtecottmetz and Erik Sand on this important new article in @TWQgw. An important contribution to a central security policy debate: "Defending Taiwan: But … What Are the Costs?" tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…
