Seoul wants the bomb, China and North Korea are piling up warheads. What role should U.S. nuclear weapons play in Asia? Sam Seitz and I tackle this question in a new article at the Journal for Peace and Nuclear Disarmament. Read our open access article here: www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1...

My plane is just pushing back from the gate on the way to South Korea… and I find out the country is under martial law. Not exactly the news you want to get before losing cell service and WiFi…

Been at Oxford so long that I’ve finally convinced them to let me give the lecture on nuclear weapons. Even better, I have a bit of cold, making me sound like Darth Vader explaining the finer point of nuclear weapons design…

Worth trudging through the rain to hear Andy present his excellent new book! Even having read it, I learned quite a few fascinating tidbits on Bush admin decision-making during the discussion!

Yep. And that why the potential for mass violence is high. A post-genocidal society confronted with what is perceived as an existential threat. That's why you also need cooler heads at the top and not the abomination that is there now

Lovely sunset from my penultimate night in Atlanta! Always nice being back home, but excited to return to the dreaming spires of Oxford soon.
