I'm very much looking forward to discussing my new book on 19th Feb at RSIS. I'll be examining how insurgents like FARC are more inclined toward negotiations when their political legitimacy is acknowledged rather than denied, including how legitimacy influences COIN dynamics.

Thrilled to be heading to my favourite conference-- the STR conference-- this year where I will present on two papers co-authored with Christina Schmid, and Craig Whiteside and Amarnath Amarasingam. It's been a while, so looking forward to all of the catch-ups!
