International Affairs Scholars Talk Back to Trump at #Duckies2017

23 February 2017, 1903 EST

Trump told us we should study the world.  IR scholars had something to say about that. Earlier I promised to turn some of these quips into a special blog post, which also happens to be my Ignite talk at this year’s Duckies’ Awards in Baltimore. Happy #ISA2017.
