Professor Rosella Cappella Awarded Major Workshop Grant from International Studies Association
Rosella Cappella, an assistant professor in the department who focuses on International Relations, was just awarded a grant to support a large workshop by the International Studies Association. Along with Kaija Schilde from the Pardee School at Boston University and Norrin Ripsman from Concordia College, Cappella will organize a workshop titled “The Political Economy of National Security: A New Research Agenda of Military Power, War, and Peace in an Era of Austerity” prior to the International Studies Association annual conference next spring. The workshop will bring 29 scholars together from around the world to discuss issues related to economic crises, austerity, and increased financial globalization and how these issues connect to military power and international dispute resolution.
