@AlexCecylia @ForeignAffairs Great work, @AlexCecylia !

I feel like this applies to academics, too… but fear would still result is disproportionate amount of “yes”

Printing this out and taping it to my desk.

100% perfect system for anyone (especially solopreneurs) to look at new opportunities.

@JohnF_Sullivan Sans source, I’ve heard that PLA is also afraid of casualties - demographic concerns, public opinion, etc. Is that still the assumption?

[Matt Kuhlman @MJKuhl]

@GerardoMunck @DuplessisBrad stuff like this is super helpful for comps prep.

[Matt Kuhlman @MJKuhl]

Great conversation with Dr. Colin Kahl (@ColinKahl) hosted @MIT_SSP covering numerous salient topics and critical questions facing the US and int'l security - strongly recommend watching.

OFFICIAL TRAILER: MADE IN ETHIOPIA

Filmed over four years, “Made in Ethiopia” reveals China’s significant yet often misunderstood impact on Africa.

@julthomson Great things accomplished with much more to come! We enjoy watching your journey

@RikioInouye @PeaceScienceSoc Unfortunately not this year, but will look at the next one!

@DefenseCharts If this is in fact a real slide, which I believe it to be, I’m certain it was printed out countless times and wasted a significant amount of toner in doing so. 😖

[Matt Kuhlman @MJKuhl]

@DuplessisBrad Looks like Scott’s Run. Cool little park.

[Matt Kuhlman @MJKuhl]

@ZackCooper @AEIfdp The most anticipated report of the year!

[Matt Kuhlman @MJKuhl]

Another banger of a podcast from @jwcglaser. This time with @RenanahJoyce and @BrianDBlank on the competitive dynamics of overseas military basing. Kudos to them on a great article!

[John Glaser @jwcglaser]

Latest w @RenanahJoyce & @BrianDBlank on how competition for overseas military bases increases the costs of securing access. They discuss the strategy of forward basing, recent expansion in Africa, compensating hosts, great power competition, & more! https://t.co/04Rv1W9XVS

[Matt Kuhlman @MJKuhl]

@ProfPaulPoast Would pair pt 2 with interesting @ProfTalmadge @jststs article re tech and escalation. Her take, it requires purposive decision to escalate, and tech is, at times, an intervening var. In this case, tgt’d strike deliberate decision to climb escal ladder

[Secretary Antony Blinken @SecBlinken]

Paul Whelan, Evan Gershkovich, and Alsu Kurmasheva are on their way to the United States to reunite with their families. I’m grateful for all of those who worked to secure their freedom and for our allies and partners who made this deal possible.

[Gerardo L. Munck @GerardoMunck]

Nic van de Walle passed away yesterday. We have lost a comparativist and Africanist. His book with Mike Bratton helped many of us connect the early debates about democratization to Africa. He was a strong advocate for the study of Africa in the US. Here are some of his works.👇
