Current research projects:
* A study of international responses to the Bush Doctrine (unilateralism/pre-emption) that appear to be taking several forms, including Canada's pulling out of North American missile defense with the U.S. and the recent East Asian summit (and regional community declaration) to which China was invited but the U.S. was not.
* A study comparing past U.S. military occupations, successful and unsuccessful, in the course of formulating an explanation of the U.S. near failure in Iraq and an ulimate prediction of the outcome.
* A study of the recovery of emerging market nation states from financial crises, examining why some of those affected (in the Tequila crisis in Latin America and the Asian financial crisis in East Asia) are reforming their banking and corporate sectors, to stave off a new crisis, and others are not.
* A study of cross-Atlantic merger regulation competition between the U.S. and the EU, testing whether an informal international agreement between the U.S. Justice Department and the EU's antitrust regulator is holding up, given the huge divergence between how each side is regulating the Microsoft case among others.
