A brief piece by me in E-IR on the shift from hegemony to primacy heralded by the U.S. National Security Strategy. There’s a _lot_ going on in that document but I think that the explicit abandonment of hegemony for primacy is perhaps the most important. www.e-ir.info

Grabbed data, dummied the variables (thank you!) and just shoved it into xgboost forest regression (a very forgiving algorithm) and plotted the shap values for "what predicts choosing a list as unwoke/woke (<-->)" (very forgiving visualisation) and get ~same pattern (vars ordered by total impact).

My former PhD student, Carmen Chas’s forthcoming book. A groundbreaking study that combines International Law and Realist IR theory to excellent effect.
