Substance Use Patterns and Their Association with Depression and Social Factors During Covid-19 Among Harlem Residents in New York City
This study aimed to identify the prevalence of substance use before and during COVID-19; and examined its association with depression and social factors among 437 residents from the neighborhood of Harlem in Northern Manhattan, New York City. Over a third of respondents reported using any substance before COVID-19, and initiating/increasing substance use during COVID-19. The most common substances used before COVID-19 and initiated/increased duri…
Alcohol Misuse, Binge Drinking, and their Associations with Psychosocial Factors during Covid-19 among Harlem Residents in New York City
He Knew of a Surety
Drawing on close readings of an understudied Hebrew-language archive—the journal Ma'arakhot—this article examines the emergence of a new political and technical vernacular for the “doing” of national security. That vernacular was both practical and poetic/rhetorical. That is, it aimed to produce intuitive Hebrew-language equivalents for strategic, operational, and tactical concepts used in foreign—especially British, Soviet, and American—sources …
Nicholas Rasmussen, Fat in the Fifties
In Fat in the Fifties: America’s First Obesity Crisis, philosopher, scientist, and historian Nicholas Rasmussen, who has written in the past on the history of the life sciences, biotechnology, and pharmaceuticals, turns his considerable skills to the question of obesity, science, and public health in the United States. Historians of medicine and science alike will find a lot to dig into here, and the book would work well in classroom treatments o…
What a Waste 2.0
By 2050, the world is expected to generate 3.40 billion tons of waste annually, increasing drastically from today's 2.01 billion tons. What a Waste 2.0: A Global Snapshot of Solid Waste Management to 2050 aggregates extensive solid waste data at the national and urban levels. It estimates and projects waste generation to 2030 and 2050. Beyond the core data metrics from waste generation to disposal, the report provides information on waste managem…
America's maritime legacy
After tragedy
Responding to renewed interest in political rhetoric among contemporary International Relations (IR)–realists, this article advances three main claims. First, it suggests that tragedy—the dominant aesthetic-narrative mode to which these realists have turned in their rhetorical considerations—is ill-suited to the contemporary political moment. In the context of a late-modern “nuclear condition,” the turn to classical tragedy seems set to reproduce…
Why Does Pluralism Matter When We Study Politics? A View from Contemporary International Relations
Pluralism has become a buzzword in International Relations. It has emerged in a number of linked literatures and has drawn the support of an unusual coalition of scholars: advocates of greater methodological diversity; those who feel that IR has degenerated into a clash of paradigmatic “-isms”; those who favor a closer relationship between academics and policy-makers; and those who wish to see greater reflexivity within the field. Perhaps unsurpr…
Threat inflation as political melodrama
Fearful talk surrounding ISIS discloses two ‘public secrets’ that collectively define the dilemma of late modern politics. The first is a transition from politics that is experienced and narrated chiefly as tragedy to one that is experienced chiefly as melodrama. The second is a motivated wish to shed the moral burden which tragedy places on the contemporary political subject. ISIS, then, is terrifying not because it represents a throwback to pre…
Defending Planet Politics
Planet Politics
Planet Politics is about rewriting and rethinking International Relations as a set of practices, both intellectual and organisational. We use the polemical and rhetorical format of the political manifesto to open a space for inter-disciplinary growth and debate, and for thinking about legal and institutional reform. We hope to begin a dialogue about both the limits of IR, and of its possibilities for forming alliances and fostering interdisciplin…
The Metamorphoses of Fat
Reviewed by: The Metamorphoses of Fat: A History of Obesity by Georges Vigarello Deborah Levine Georges Vigarello. The Metamorphoses of Fat: A History of Obesity. Translated by C. Jon Delogu. European Perspectives. New York: Columbia University Press, 2013. xiii + 261 pp. $29.50 (978-0-231-15976-0). Perhaps the most frequent question asked of historians who study obesity is, “When did fat become a problem?” Recent years have seen a number of scho…
The Apocalyptic Sting and the Rise of Israeli Unrealism
This paper explores Gershom Scholem's notion of an ‘apocalyptic sting’—a messianic political theology which, he feared, haunted Jewish and Israeli politics through the Hebrew language. The paper makes four key moves. First, I unpack Scholem's ‘sting’ in relation to contemporary Israeli religious radicalism. Second, I tie that notion of a sting to Frankfurt-School discussions of reification and its political effects. Third, I survey attempts to cr…
The closing of the American mind
Senior ‘American School’ International Relations theorists — John Mearsheimer and Stephen Walt, Robert Keohane, and others — have evinced a growing concern about a rise of technocratic hypothesis-testing, and a parallel decline in grand theory. We share many of their concerns; yet, we also find such discussions deeply unsatisfying. Grand theory descends into ‘technocracy’ because of reifying and depoliticizing processes deeply woven into both tho…
Some considerations for civilian–peacekeeper protection alliances
Protection of civilians has become enshrined as a core task for international peacekeeping missions. How to ensure that civilians are safe from violence and human rights abuses is central to developing military doctrine for peacekeeping; how safe civilians are from attack is central to how peacekeeping missions are assessed both by locals and international observers. However, protection of civilians is often seen as something that is done by acti…
Why Hans Morgenthau Was Not a Critical Theorist (and Why Contemporary IR Realists Should Care)
A growing body of critical and reflexive international relations (IR) realism draws on the work of Hans Morgenthau. While not without merit, I argue that these appropriations rely on selective - perhaps even wishful - readings of Morgenthau's work: the reflexivity that he calls for, I argue, is not matched by what his theory actually delivers. Raising that distinction, I then trace out its consequences for contemporary critical and reflexive IR r…
Social Media–Delivered Sexual Health Intervention
Recovering International Relations
This book bridges two key divides in International Relations. The first is between ‘value-free’ and normative theory. The second is between reflective, philosophically inflected explorations of ethics in IR and empirical studies of practical problems in world politics. Featuring a novel, provocative and detailed survey of IR’s development over the second half of the twentieth century, the work draws on early Frankfurt School social theory to sugg…
The World Is Too Much with Us’
International Relations’ constructivist turn – that body of approaches emerging in the late 1980s/early 1990s in which international outcomes were held to be predicated upon complex social arrangements, rules, norms, institutions, language and culture – emerged from a unique historical and intellectual moment. Initially, this theoretical turn was deeply committed to reflexivity and circumspection: since events were held to be contingent and theor…

The Social Welfare History State
Conservatism and Tradition in Danish Social Welfare Legislation, 1890-1933
Before Denmark finally achieved parliamentary democracy in 1901, it was already well on the way to becoming a thorough-going welfare state and was, until about the Second World War, a leader in developing the institutions and ideology of welfare capitalism. The contrast with the United States, where democratic political institutions are much older, but where welfare institutions have developed more slowly and in very different form, is striking. …

Poverty Knowledge
Alice O'Connor is angry. She is particularly angry at the 1996 welfare changes, which she characterizes as “the end of welfare,” and at what she regards as the liberal complicity in them. She is scornful of “the poverty industry” at think tanks and universities. This poverty industry—dominated by nonpoor white males— has produced what she regards as pernicious concepts such as the culture of poverty and the underclass. Thus there has been an almo…
