Hi, maybe I should have been more specific earlier. I'm a big fan of Anne Sartori's work on diplomacy and the other "rationalist" approaches to diplomacy. However, I want to get into the details more and be more empirical than game theorists are. I've had trouble finding examples of "rationalist" scholars who are also doing empirical work.
Hi guys, I'm interested in a PhD focusing on diplomacy, particularly how states can use diplomacy to prevent conflict. I'm having trouble identifying programs where I can pursue this interest. It seems like the study of diplomacy is growing, but that there aren't a lot of senior faculty working on the issue. Any suggestions?
