Quacking about an award

Since Dan is entirely too modest to blog this himself, I thought I’d do it myself:

International Security Studies Section Best book Award to: Daniel H. Nexon (Georgetown University) for The Struggle for Power in Early Modern Europe: Religious Conflict, Dynastic Empires, and International Change (Princeton University Press, 2009).

Yes, that’s right: our very own Dan Nexon won the best book award from the International Security Studies section of the International Studies Association for this year. I did see that they gave him a nice plaque, but I was not quick enough with my camera to snap a photo for posting.

Congratulations to Dan! Richly deserved recognition for an excellent book.
