I presented a new project on gender equality and strategic frameworks at the Japanese Society for Quantitative Political Science #JSQPS. Had a chance to learn about many new cutting edge research, 100% recommended! Tokyo was wonderful - so much to observe and learn from the social context!
Excited that "Race, Gender, and Nascent Political Ambition" is now out in @bjpols.bsky.social. W/ survey of white, Hispanic, and Black American respondents, we show primary gap in nascent political ambition is not between men and women but between white men and the majority of the polity.

These perceptions increase public support for government sponsorship of rebel groups -- making democratic states more likely to provide material backing.
Gender composition thus shapes real foreign policy outcomes.
Key finding: Rebel groups with female combatants are seen as more gender-equal, democratic, and morally legitimate—even when they are perpetrators of violence.
These perceptions matter for foreign support decisions.

I combined original survey experiments in the US and Tunisia with cross-national data on external state support for rebel groups.
This lets me test how foreign audiences respond to women fighters and whether their perceptions translate into actual support.
🎉New book alert! 📢Do female combatants shape foreign support for rebel groups?
My new @cambup-polsci.cambridge.org
book shows that groups with women fighters receive more foreign backing because they’re seen as more democratic, gender equal and less violent.

Just published. A Turkish-language history of the Soviet Union, written with @onurisci.bsky.social. Somewhat in the way that Dan Diner asked in Cataclysms how 20th-century history might be told looking out from Odesa, we approach Soviet history with Turkish connections/comparisons in mind.
Grateful for the recognition of our article “Unique Offerings: Ideological Competition and Rebel Governance” by @apsa.bsky.social 2025 Conflict Section Best Paper Award.
It has recently become online first. If you are inquiring about rebel strategies, then:

Do men see gender parity in representation as detrimental to their interests? What about when women’s representation exceeds parity? And how do such shifts affect men’s fairness perceptions? I address these questions in my article, now published in PRQ. 1/9

In economics, men are tenured aren't punished for coauthoring.
Women, however, are less likely to receive tenure the more they coauthor.
Interesting and important research 👏
