New diagram alert: It was a pleasure to visualize Birol Yeşilada and his colleagues' data-rich & prescient book “Global Power Transition and the Future of the European Union” (2018) for the Visual International Relations Project (VIRP) led by Pat James.

2. I visited my alma mater @izmirekonomiuni @IEU_SBUI for 2 events: a career talk with grad students; a book talk to students & faculty. It was a full circle moment for me as I engaged with bright young minds & the excellent faculty/colleagues @Fbaskan35 @SerhunAl @AdisonmezUC

Last week in (academic) review: 1. I gave a book talk at Çukurova University’s PSIR Department in beautiful Adana. It was a well-attended and productive event as students and faculty asked terrific, at times piercing 🤓, questions. H/T @arikan_harun @brcsr_ @asliilgit.

Happy to present our new research “Power Transition Theory: The View from Systemism” (w/ Yuzhu Zeng & Patrick James) at the TransResearch Consortium’s (TRC) 26th annual convention in Providence, RI. My first, & surely not the last, TRC experience. Terrific crowd & scholarship.

This is how “ending with a bang” looks like in real life. Delighted to partake in this roundtable at #ISA2025 to discuss foreign policy-making under autocratization with great scholars and friends. @LiselHintz @SenemAydnDzgit and X-less others. 👏🏼@isanet @UConnGlobal @UConnCLAS

Please see my latest @MLInstitute policy paper on Syria: "Western nations must remain vigilant about the new Syrian government, which is led by a group, HTS, that adheres to Salafi jihadism. It will be best to take a “wait-and-see approach..." 3/1 https://t.co/MaesaFysOu
