    The International Security Studies Section (ISSS) of the International Studies Association aims to promote the study of global, international, regional, and national security—broadly conceived.

  • Race and Racial Exclusion in Security Studies

    Open AccessKelebogile Zvobgo, Arturo C Sotomayor et al.ARTICLESecurity Studies2023Cited by: 3

    Increased attention to racialized knowledge and methodological whiteness has swept the political science discipline, especially international relations.

    Arturo C SotomayorARTICLEThe Nonproliferation Review2013

    Latin American countries have historically followed different paths and logics toward the nonproliferation regime. Some states have unconditionally advocated for global and nonproliferation efforts, while others have vehemently opposed such measures or remained ambivalent toward the regime itself. By historically comparing two of Latin America's most influential countries—Brazil and Mexico—this study identifies the underlying domestic conditions …
