PhD Scholarship: The Cold War in Global Perspectives
The Department of History invites applications for a PhD in History focused on exploring the Cold War in global perspectives. Particular themes could include post-colonial security issues, such as defence and/or military assistance relations between the superpowers, the former metropoles or other West European countries and African states, conflicts, human rights or peacekeeping. We would particularly welcome applications which avoid a Eurocentric perspective.
Re: ISSF Article Review 104 on China [Welch]
I would like to congratulate Priscilla Roberts on an excellent review essay, but I felt I should also note one correction: Japan’s one percent of GDP defense spending limit was a non-binding norm, not something specified in the Japanese constitution.
