"Is there something about International Relations scholars wanting to keep Putin happy?"
Bill Sjostrom at Atlantic Blog brutally dissects a poll of international relations "scholars". The poll construction and results reveal the field of international relations to be rife with left-wing anti-Semites. The title of this posting came from this paragraph:
[I]n questions 66 and 67, only 8% (6% in Canada) support an attack against North Korea if it continues developing nuclear weapons, but that jumps to 53% (50% in Canada) if the Security Council approves. Questions 68 and 69 show the same result for Iran. Support for invading Iran if it continues to develop nuclear weapons jumps from 9% without Security Council approval (7% in Canada) to 48% with it (41% in Canada). The poll offers for no explanation for the fetish for the largely irrelevant Security Council. Is there something about IR scholars wanting to keep Putin happy?
