Extremely happy to announce that my book on the domestic politics of 'international' status competition Oxford University Press is available to pre-order: I'll make proper thread soon, but you can get a teaser from the nice things some of my favourite scholars said about the book (below).

Publication Alert 🐳!

How has NATO’s narrative of the self changed since Russia’s annexation of Crimea?

Is the new narrative fit for purpose or does it undermine NATO's own stated goals?

Our new piece in CSP Journal tackles these questions. A short 🧵on this long article 👇

Very happy to join the editorial advisory board of Cooperation and Conflict under the new NUPI team headed by Benjamin de Carvalho, Kristin Haugevik, Paul Beaumont & Øyvind Svendsen. Looking forward to contributing in the spirit of 'adding a Nordic touch' to IR, in the words of Lene Hansen

Wow, already the title is totally idiotic!

Looking forward to reading this paper by my brilliant NUPI colleagues Paul Beaumont Julie Wilhelmsen and Kristian Lundby Gjerde on NATO 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 congrats on the publication!

Second, to the anonymous reviewers, whose detailed and insightful feedback really helped the paper realise its potential. In particular, the opening lines from Reviewer 2, who did not seem to realise they were reviewer 2, will stay with me forever:

What accounts for the proliferation of theoretical 'turns' within the field of International Relations? In their latest article, Jaakko Heiskanen & @beaumontpaul explore the emergence, evolution and impact of 'turn talk' for the discipline.

Delighted to see this paper finally out: Katharina and I actually began working on it on it in response to the visa difficulties my non EU/US colleagues face attending ISA. Thread coming soon!

Very excited and interested in the response to our article on NATO’s changing story about itself and its mission in the world:

As much as NATO wishes it, the rest of the world cannot be expected to share NATO’ selective amnesia (see Patrick Porter book for a brilliant dissection of NATO’s relationship to history).
