Teaching & Student Resources
I teach in areas of international affairs and social science methodology. Please feel free to contact me to swap syllabi and other materials.

In April 2026, I started a Substack to reflect and provide hopefully useful advice on academia/pursuing a PhD, especially for students but perhaps eventually for junior scholars as well: Click here for Jon's Substack.
