Gender Norms, Fairness Ideology, and the First Openly Trans Woman Athlete in South Korea
Global debates on trans women’s participation in women’s sports have been highly complex. They extend beyond the fairness-versus-inclusion binary to address diverse topics such as safety, human rights, and physiological advantage, analyzed from philosophical, medical, and sociological perspectives. These discussions provide an essential backdrop for understanding South Korea’s evolving discourse on trans athletes, which remains largely absent in …

Squid Game, a Netflix original series about children's games turned into deathmatches, has become a phenomenal global success and has captivated the latest cultural and media scenes.

The theoretical framework argues that the likelihood of ratification is influenced by adjustment costs a signatory faces in implementing EPA provisions. We focus on the level of corruption as indicative of adjustment cos…

Introduction to the Presidential Special Issue “Multiple Identities and Scholarship in International Studies”
This Presidential Special Issue of ISR is unique in that it reflects upon a conference that did not take place. Unfortunately, the 2020 annual meeting of ISA was canceled due to the onset of the COVID pandemic. What would have been one of our largest and most diverse meetings yet went the way of so many of our plans for the year. But, rather than dwell on the negative aspects of losing our annual meeting, this special issue highlights both the th…

Unethical Adaptation
In contemporary cultural scenes saturated by ‘intermediality’ and ‘transmediality’, adaptation studies have challenged the distinction and hierarchy between the source and its adaptation, the author and the reader-spectator, and a variety of genres and media. While early critics of adaptation studies centred on fidelity criticism, recently Linda Hutcheon breaks free from literary elitism and emphasizes how stories, ‘like genes’, adapt to new envi…

The Queer Sport of Failure
This article aims to update the discourse on female Korean athletes by illuminating the radical change of their imagery and reality over the last three decades, from sexless victims of patriarchy to sportswomen asserting their strength, femininity, and even “queerness.” Insofar as sports films provide a felicitous site through which to examine popular and evolving representations of gender and sport, the article analyzes a variety of Korean sport…
Hubs of Governance
In this paper, we investigate the causes and consequences of institutional design choices in the liberalization of services trade and investment in preferential trade agreements (PTAs).

We develop an information-based argument that explains why these different types induce path dependence in sub…

Reciprocal Trade Agreements in Asia
Reciprocal trade agreements (RTAs) have proliferated rapidly in Asia in recent years, an unprecedented phenomenon in a region in which state-led institution-building efforts were largely unsuccessful during the Cold War years. In this article, we investigate the qualitative provisions of RTAs in Asia, focusing on agreements that are professedly geared toward trade liberalization through reciprocal exchanges of trade concessions. We build on the c…
Political Control and Bureaucratic Autonomy Revisited
The proper role of bureaucracy in democratic governance has long been a matter of controversy. One part of the debate involves the argument that democratic control and bureaucratic autonomy are dichotomous opposites: if there is democratic control, there cannot be bureaucratic autonomy, and vice versa. This article develops a spatial model of bureaucratic policy choices that reveals that conditions of democratic control and bureaucratic autonomy …
Dirty Pool
International relations scholars make frequent use of pooled cross-sectional regression in which N dyads over T time points are combined to create NT observations. Unless special conditions are met, these regressions produce biased estimates of regression coefficients and their standard errors. A survey of recent publications in international relations shows little attention to this issue. Using data from the period 1951–92, we examine the conseq…
The new politics of voting alignments in the United Nations General Assembly
Voting patterns in the United National General Assembly provide an exceptionally good set of evidence for observing issues and alignments of states in international politics. We analyze those patterns in three post-cold war sessions of the General Assembly and compare them with the alignments and issues that characterized sessions during the cold war. We find new groups and alignments (with most of Eastern Europe now voting with rather than again…

It shows that the distribution of the benefits produced by the GATT was much more highly skewed than conventional wisdom assumes. The article also shows that the gold, Commonwealth, Reichsmark, and exchange-control blocs e…
