Scholars analyzing international order and grand strategy are not keeping up with the times -- #climate change is largely absent from a slew of recent academic work on those topics. My new post @DuckofMinerva 1/4 https://duckofminerva.com/2021/02/gone-missing-from-grand-strategy-climate-change.html

@busbyj2 @ErinSikorsky @BWJ777 &others have argued to incl climate in analysis but some still doubt it's a security or strategy topic. Yet, homes of hundreds of millions will soon be uninhabitable. USA too. Strategy is about allocating scarce resources to solve tough problems 2/4

I encourage folks looking at the Liberal International Order or changing US position, like @stephenWalt @rodrikdani @dhnexon @CooleyOnEurasia @segoddard @CReussmit @profLind & many, many others to consider *tradeoffs* between climate sustainability and other priorities 3/4

My other arg is to be less statist when thinking international order, b/c key parts of it are not about states-as-billiard-balls. Climate politics is 1-distributive and 2-dynamic, per my work with @greenprofgreen @thomasnhale, also @leahstokes @mmildenberger @khar1958 others 4/4
