DOCTORAL DISSERTATION AND GRADUATE SCHOOL SECOND YEAR PAPER:

"Force-Prone States: Sources of Highly Militarized Foreign Policy." Why are some states prone to using offensive military force? Developed MEAN state syndrome theory, which focused on the influence of foreign policy belief systems that are highly ethnocentric, nationalist, and militarist on the choice of instruments in foreign policy. MEAN state syndrome theory was compared to a rational actor, utility maximizing, theory of foreign policy, using South Africa and Iraq as the cases. Committee members were Hayward Alker, Barry Posen (chair), and Stephen Van Evera.

Second Year paper: quantitative (multivariate) analysis of militarization and aggressive international behavior in Africa. Found that the usual indicators of militarization (e.g. military spending) were not correlated with increased cross border aggression, except in the case of South Africa.

NGO AND OTHER WORK EXPERIENCE:
