As the US steps back from leading in global governance institutions, China has increasingly stepped into leadership roles, serving as head of WHO, FAO, and other important UN agencies in recent years. In new (open access!) work with
@rhulvey.bsky.social in @the-peio.bsky.social we ask: why? 1/5

I have a short (~10min) survey on diplomacy that I need student participation for ASAP (the study has been IRB exempted). If you could share with students at your institution, I would really appreciate it- lmk if you'd like more info! Link: upenn.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

Does your department have a policy about how much co-authored vs. solo-authored work count towards T&P? Is it a formal or informal rule? If you could share this info with me (will remain anonymous!) I am trying to get a sense of whether there are clear norms across the field about this!

New dataset alert: @sabrinabarias.bsky.social (Lehigh University) developed a new dataset of all UN Security Council and General Assembly resolutions adopted from 1946 to 2018, covering over 17,000 texts.

Are you hoping to hold a book workshop for a (nearly) complete manuscript, but don't have access to institutional funds? Our department has an open call for applications for a book workshop to be hosted here at Lehigh! ir.cas.lehigh.edu/textor-manus...

Movin' on up - we're an R1 now! Just an official recognition of the great work being done at Lehigh!

Surely this will never happen to me again, but I had TWO papers come out yesterday! In @jpeaceresearch.bsky.social, I introduce a new corpus of all 17,324 UNGA & UNSC resolutions from 1946-2018. Users will have searchable resolution texts, but also key metadata: citations, topics & reuse. 1/5

Some IOs - like the IMF, UNSC, and the WHO - group small states together in 'proxy' systems, while powerful states speak for themselves. In new (open access!) work with @rickyclark.bsky.social and Ayse Kaya in @the-peio.bsky.social, we focus on the case of climate change in the IMF. 1/3

Hi everyone! Has anyone come across useful papers/blog posts/etc that discuss the inferential challenges of using COVID-19 as an exogenous shock?

New record: 24 referee invitations on a single ms, with only one accepted. And this is for a "big name journal".

If you submit manuscripts, you must review manuscripts.

How many? See formula below. (Yes, resubmissions and revisions count in the number of submissions.)

What is the longest y'all have had a paper "Awaiting Decision"? I'm at 2+ months and losing my mind

who wants to study music diplomacy with me? 100% serious
