This paper shows: people in the US and China see trade deficits as a power weakness. Americans who think China will overtake the US view bilateral trade deficits with China especially negatively (this holds for different political orientations and social-demographic backgrounds).

I had the pleasure to appear in Jan Dunin-Wasowicz's podcast to discuss the past, present and future of EU sanctions. Among other things how the Russia sanctions differ from previous uses, where EU sanctions come from, and how they have evolved over time. https://t.co/5J571MolAo

Grateful that this paper with a former @KUPoliticalSci student came out in JCC!

The paper explores the puzzle of why foreign coverage in the People's Daily has DECLINED in recent years despite a more active Chinese foreign policy!

In short: yes, it does. @F_Bethke and I explore this in @ISQ_Jrnl based on a new survey experiment run with 253 US foreign policy practitioners with @trip_irsurvey. 1/5
