Apropos current events, I want to tout this paper by @soyounglee.bsky.social showing that discussion of economic benefits can reduce public support for military action. People are skeptical when they think specific groups (e.g., oil companies) will benefit. www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

How does transparency affect the behavior of international bureaucrats tasked with facilitating negotiations? In new work with Sojun Park in the Review of International Organizations (doi.org/10.1007/s115..., it’s open access!), we provide an answer in the context of the WTO.

Domestic Distributional Roots of National Interest
Domestic Distributional Roots of National Interest By Soyoung Lee, Yale University and Duke University. What international issues become national interests worth fighting for, and why? Contrary to conventional wisdom, I argue that issues without clear economic value, such as barren lands, are more likely to be perceived as national interests because they do not benefit any single domestic group.

Congratulations to @soyounglee.bsky.social for BEST dissertation award at Peace Science!
🥳 My paper is out @iojournal.bsky.social! Two main empirical takeaways: 1. States often don't fight over lands with resources, even when they can claim it for historical reasons. 2. Historical boundaries matter in how states shape their territorial claims. For more, abstract and paper below!
New on #FirstView: are states more likely to claim territories with oil and minerals? Using 200 years of geocoded historical data, @soyounglee37 finds that states are *less* likely to claim such lands. www.cambridge.org/core/journal...
Happy 8th anniversary to the best April Fool's joke @dadakim.bsky.social & I ever pulled off!
