Research didn't slow down for summer. Neither did SPIA faculty.
This summer brought new scholarship examining some of the questions shaping public policy and international affairs — including voting and economic shocks, national security, government institutions, technology and internet governance, military cooperation, and more.
Take a look at our Faculty Publications Roundup, highlighting recent work by SPIA scholars published in leading academic journals.
And this is just the beginning! We’re making these roundups a regular feature, creating another way to follow the research, ideas and expertise coming out of SPIA.
