Good news! Very happy to see my article “A threat rather than a resource: why voicing internal criticism is difficult in international organisations” published @JIRD_jour. It presents some first insights from my PhD on ‘criticism from within’ in IOs. 1/4 link.springer.com/article/10…

The rules-based international order will not survive if its institutions only work in powerful states’ interests write @_benchristian @johannaspeyer and Lisbeth Zimmermann of @goetheuni wp.me/p3I2YF-eDx

🥁 Does public opinion on international affairs affect elites’ policy preferences? 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 academic.oup.com/isq/article…

Responding to a recent #USAPP article, @_BenChristian, @JohannaSpeyer and Lisbeth Zimmermann write that a rules-based international order will not survive if its institutions only work in powerful states’ interests. Read the article here: buff.ly/49w5uuT

Interested in the future prospects of #norms , #IO s and International #Order after the election of #Trump ? In our new blog post @LSEUSAblog , @_BenChristian , Lisbeth Zimmermann and I argue that further privileges for great powers will not save the rules-based order.

With "Broken Solidarities", Felix Anderl @zfk_mr has written a truly fascinating book @BrisUniPress about how open global governance divides and rules. I wrote a (far less fascinating) book review, out now @FJSBew. Have a look - and then read the book! :) degruyter.com/document/doi/1…
