Loved moderating Prof. Berberian & Prof. Grigor on their inspiring book “Armenian Women, Minoritarian Agency, and the Making of Iranian Modernity“(@stanfordpress.bsky.social, 2025) at @zmo-berlin.bsky.social. A fascinating mix of political, gender, and art history. Don’t miss their Europe tour!

6+1 Questions about American Conquest: The Northwest Indian War and the Making of US Foreign Policy What’s the name of the book, and where can we find it? American Conquest: The Northwest Indian War and the Making of US Foreign Policy (Stanford University Press, 2025). What’s the argument? Relations with Native American groups were constitutive of early U.S. foreign policy, and this should make us reconsider the notion that the United States was isolationist in this period.

Excited to spend the day today at the #CALIBA trade show. Always appreciate the opportunity to mingle with booksellers in our backyard!

3a. BTW, if you *would* consider moving from elsewhere, the cover letter is a great place to make that clear!

Best of luck-

3. Pay attention to location: our position is a hybrid position, but that means M-Th in our Redwood City office, with Fridays remote. Don't apply if you're not planning on moving from elsewhere.

2a. Make sure to include the *correct* cover letter. No matter how compelling a case you can make for your candidacy, you don't really do yourself any favors if the letter you attach is addressed to a the wrong company/department/etc.

2. Include a cover letter. Our posting explicitly asks for one, but it's a good practice anyway. In the age of push-button, mass-application tools, a good cover letter can really make your application stand out.
