OVERVIEW
The Judith Reppy Institute for Peace and Conflict Studies is an interdisciplinary program
devoted to research and teaching on the problems of war and peace, arms control and disarma-
ment, and more generally, instances of collective violence. Founded in 1970 as the Peace Studies
Program with the support of the University’s Center for International Studies and the Program on
Science, Technology and Society, the Institute was renamed in July 2010 to honor Judith Reppy
for her dedication to the Institute over the decades. The Institute maintains an abiding interest in
issues in science and security, from its long-standing attention to nuclear non-proliferation to its
current focus on the threat posed by chemical and biological weapons and on issues related to
outer-space surveillance. Institute members are also concerned with other security issues, among
them ethnic conflict, human rights, regional security, terrorism, economics of national security,
and international humanitarian law (laws of war).
The Reppy Institute is distinguished by its thoroughly interdisciplinary character and its
emphasis on long-term policy issues. Both are essential for the Institute’s objective of investi-
gating the intellectual foundations of security and the preservation of peace. This commitment
motivates the research and training activities of faculty and post-doctoral fellows, as well as
graduate and undergraduate students associated with the Institute.
Judith Reppy and Catherine Kelleher’s John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation
project for research on “Creating Conditions for a Stable Transition to a New Nuclear Order”
continued during the year. The primary goal of the project is to contribute new thinking and
writing on the problems of managing a stable transition, as countries reduce their nuclear
armaments to low numbers. Workshops took place November 11–13, 2015 at Cornell on
“Stability at Low Nuclear Numbers: Alternative Framings” (see Appendix D), February 22–24,
2016 in Monterey, California on “A Stable Transition to a New Nuclear Order” focusing on East
Asia (see Appendix E), and May 2–3, 2016 in Washington, DC on “Nuclear Stability at Low
Numbers: The South Asian Challenge” (see Appendix G). Attendees included people from
government agencies, as well as members of the academic community interested in nuclear
weapons issue.
For the second year the Einaudi Center for International Studies provided funding to the
Institute for internationalization projects, including events in Stockholm, Sweden and Turin,
Italy. Sarah Krepps and Gustavo Flores-Macias organized the May 23–25 trip along with
colleagues in Stockholm. Six Cornell graduate students presented papers and met with Ph.D.
students and faculty interested in global security. Several universities participated. Matthew
Evangelista organized the conference that took place in Turin, Italy June 10, 2016 on “A quar-
ant’anni da la crisi italiana politica, economia e società dagli anni 70 ad oggi” (see Appendix H).
Other Reppy Institute activities in 2015–2016 focused on the Institute’s central missions
of supporting student and faculty teaching and research, cross-campus interactions, and off-
campus outreach. Activities included workshops, weekly seminars (see Appendix A for a list of
speakers and their titles), scheduled meetings of speakers with graduate students affiliated with
the Institute (see Appendix B), and co-sponsorship of a number of speakers, symposia, and other
special events with other campus groups (see Appendix C).

RESEARCH
The Judith Reppy Institute for Peace and
Conflict Studies seeks to encourage faculty
and graduate student research and writing on
problems of international peace and security,
broadly defined. The Institute continued to
promote and facilitate graduate student pro-
fessional development by hosting a series of
small group meetings, a practice initiated by
Jonathan Kirshner in spring 2009. This ini-
tiative began with funding from the Insti-
tute’s grant from the MacArthur Foundation,
but is now supported by Cornell’s Walter S.
Carpenter Chair. These meetings provide the
opportunity for graduate students to discuss
their research projects with outside speakers.
Michael Allen, a government graduate stu-
dent, hosted these small group meetings in
2015–2016 (see the list of graduate student
development activities in Appendix B).
In 2015–2016 peace and conflict studies-
related research activities included the indi-
vidual research interests of these faculty:
Mabel Berezin’s (Sociology) research
focuses on extremist politics in contemporary
Europe. She was a Visiting Scholar at the
Center for European Studies, Harvard
University in Spring 2016.
Allen Carlson’s (Government) research
interests include international relations, Chi-
nese foreign policy, and Asian security. He is
currently developing a research project that
examines the emerging role of transnational
public intellectuals in shaping debates within
China about the country’s rise and its impli-
cations for the international system.
Holly Case’s (History) work focuses on the
relationship between foreign policy, social
policy, science, and literature as manifest in
the European state system of the nineteenth
and twentieth centuries. She is currently at
work on a history of the emergence of “ques-
tions”—the Eastern question, Jewish ques-
tion, Polish question, woman question,
worker question, etc.—in the nineteenth cen-
tury, as well as a history of the role played by
consuls and consular reform in transforming
the international system over the course of
the nineteenth and into the twentieth century.
She will be leaving Cornell to join the
History Department at Brown University in
July 2016.
Matthew Evangelista’s (Government)
research is mainly related to issues of peace
and conflict, with recent projects on interna-
tional norms and laws governing warfare,
and the Allied bombing campaign against
Italy during World War II.
Isabel Hull (History) studies Germany from
1700–1945 (especially sociopolitical, mili-
tary, legal, administrative, and political the-
ory), international laws of war, the First
World War, fascism, and genocide. She
received a Certificate of Merit from the
American Society of International Law for “a
preeminent contribution to creative scholar–
ship” for her book, A Scrap of Paper: Break–
ing and Making International Law During
the Great War (Cornell, 2014), at the ASIL’s
annual conference in Washington, DC in
March 2016.
Karim-Aly Kassam’s (Natural Resources)
research focuses on the connectivity of
human and environmental relations, address-
ing indigenous ways of knowing, food sover-
eignty, sustainable livelihoods, and climate
change, and the creation of an International
University in Mountain Science.

Peter Katzenstein’s (Government) research
includes projects on the financial crisis, civ-
ilization politics, soft power (law, popular
culture, public diplomacy, and religion), and
America’s changing role in the world. He is
starting a research project with Lucia Seybert
on Circulatory Power in World Politics. He
has been appointed WZB Fellow at the
Berlin Social Science Center through 2017.
Jonathan Kirshner’s (Government) re-
search interests focus on political economy
and national security, and the politics of
international money and finance. He works
on research that considers American power
and world politics after the financial crisis.
Sarah Kreps’ (Government) research inter-
ests include international relations, security,
political economy, law, and nuclear prolifer-
ation issues. She is working on a project on
war finance, as well as a project on drone
warfare.
George Lewis’ (Reppy Institute) research
has focused on several issues involving bal-
listic missile defenses. His research focuses
on the technology, capabilities, and implica–
tions of ballistic missile defense systems,
with an emphasis on space-and ground-based
sensor systems, and on outer space surveil–
lance technology and capabilities. During
2015–2016 he made many posts covering
ballistic missile defense and outer space
security issues from a technical perspective
on his blog, http://mostlymissiledefense.com.
Judith Reppy’s (Science and Technology
Studies) major research interest is a joint
project with Catherine McArdle Kelleher on
“Creating Conditions for a Stable Transition
to a New Nuclear Order.” This is a two-year
project, funded by a grant to the Reppy Insti-
tute from the MacArthur Foundation, which
involves a series of workshops to discuss in
detail the practical issues that need to be
resolved to make a transition to much lower
numbers of nuclear weapons feasible. Three
workshops were held in 2015–16 at Cornell,
and in Monterey, California and Washington,
DC (see Appendices D, E, and G). She also
continues to be interested in the conditions
required for transition to low nuclear num–
bers, secrecy in government, and whistle–
blower protection.
Rebecca Slayton’s (Science and Technology
Studies) research examines the relationships
between and among technological expertise,
governance, and risk, with a focus on inter–
national security and cooperation since
World War II. She is currently working on
three major projects. The first is a book on
the history of cybersecurity expertise. The
second is a Department of Homeland
Security funded project on regulation and
resilience in the electric power sector, with a
focus on resilience to cyberattacks. The third
is an NSF CAREER award examining how
different kinds of experts are currently
managing different kinds of risk associated
with information technology in the electrical
power grid.
Barry Strauss’s (History) research interests
include military and diplomatic history, mar-
itime history, history of strategy, military
sociology, and regional conflict (Mediter-
ranean and East Asia). He is working now on
a book on the how Roman emperors from
Augustine to Constantine to coped with crisis
and decline, The Twelve Caesars: Lions and
Foxes for Simon & Schuster. On 20 June
2015 he was awarded the Lucio Colletti Prize
for Political Culture in Italy and Europe in
Rome, Italy.

A number of graduate students are writing or
have completed theses that are related to the
research interests of the program, including:
Michael Allen’s (Government) research
focuses on how international law and
organizations can facilitate cooperation
between states. Specifically, he studies the
social conditions under which reputation
plays a role in achieving international
cooperation. He is also interested in the
history of “international” custom and law in
China and the Americas. He will be the
Coordinator for the International Relations
Minor for 2016–17.
Michael (Fritz) Bartel’s (History) research
lies at the intersection of the history of capi-
talism and the history of the Cold War. His
dissertation is on “The Privatization of the
Cold War: Global Finance and the End of
Communism” will examine the pivotal role
of Western commercial banks and com–
munist sovereign debt in the late Cold War.
Amanda Bosworth (History) is developing a
project on U.S.-Russia state and cultural
relations from the exchange of Alaska
between the two nations (1867) into the
Soviet period. She is interested in state and
non-state interactions at sea and along the
Pacific coasts of these two nations, as well as
how Russian culture has endured and/or how
Russians have been displaced in Alaska. The
tiny Bering Strait in the North Pacific Ocean
has been and is a particular site for tension
and cooperation between these two nations.
Her interests include the history of whaling,
tourism, and the ways in which nations tell
stories about their histories at cultural sites,
exhibitions, and museums. She took a
research trip to Juneau and Sitka, Alaska, in
August 2016.
Robert Braun’s (Government) research
combines archival work with geographical
information systems to study civil society
and intergroup relationships in times of
social upheaval. His dissertation project is on
“Religious Minorities and Resistance to
Genocide: the Collective Rescue of Jews in
the Low Countries.” In 2015–16 he was a
Pre-doctoral Fellow in the Department of
Sociology at Northwestern University.
Katrina Browne’s (Government) thesis title
is “Territorial Conflict and Territoriality,
Foreign Policy of Authoritarian Regimes,
and International Bargaining.” Her work
focuses on territorial disputes, a form of con-
flict from which violence is especially like to
emerge. She examines several aspects of ter-
ritoriality by focusing on how different
regimes behave during territorial conflicts, as
well as what institutions states have devel-
oped to divide land peacefully between
themselves.
Brian Cuddy (History) was awarded a
Mellon/ ACLS Dissertation Completion
Fellowship from the American Council of
Learned Societies for 2015
(https://www.acls.org/news/04-14-2015/),
presented to advanced graduate students in
their final year of dissertation writing.
Sean Fear’s (History) research focuses on
American Foreign Relations, Global Cold
War, Global/Transnational History, Contem–
porary Vietnamese History, and International
Relations, with minor concentrations in
Southeast Asian History and Modern China.
He held an Agnese N. Haury Dissertation
Fellowship for Spring 2016 at the New York
University Center for the United States and
Cold War. His thesis title is “Republican
Saigon’s Clash of Constituents: Domestic
6
Politics and Civil Society in U.S.-South
Vietnamese Relations, 1967–1971.” During
the 2016–17 Academic Year he will be a
U.S. Foreign Policy and International
Security Postdoctoral Fellow at the
Dartmouth College John Sloan Dickey
Center for International Understanding.
Mattias Fibiger’s (History) research
interests include U.S. foreign relations,
international history, and the Vietnam War.
His thesis title is “The United States and the
ASEAN World, 1969–1976,” and examines
American efforts to forge a post-Vietnam
War international order in Southeast Asia
during the period 1969–1976. During 2015–
2016 he conducted dissertation research
funded by the Reppy Institute and the Social
Science Research Council, travelling to
archives in the United States, Indonesia,
Malaysia, and the Philippines; and was a
visiting researcher at Universitas Indonesia
and Universiti Malaya. In 2016–2017 he will
continue conducting research both in the
United States and in Southeast Asia. Begin–
ning in January 2017 he will be writing his
dissertation from Chicago.
Darragh Hare (Natural Resources) is inter-
ested broadly in environmental governance
and ownership of natural resources. He
would like to know whether public trust
thinking can provide a framework for re-
ducing resource conflict and increasing envi-
ronmental security. He is also interested in
the evolution of ownership and how owner-
ship arrangements serve to reduce conflict in
human and non-human societies.
Isaac Kardon (Government) studies China’s
practice of international law, with a focus on
the maritime domain. China’s several island
sovereignty and maritime jurisdictional dis-
putes with neighboring countries and extra-
regional users of East Asian sea lanes have
already upset the peace, and are a source of
growing regional and global tension. His dis-
sertation research concerns a key driver of
these real and potential conflicts, China’s
“maritime rights and interests” in the Exclu-
sive Economic Zone (EEZ), and is titled
“Ruling the Waves and Waving the Rules:
Law and Strategy in China's Maritime Dis-
putes.”
Sarah Maxey’s (Government) research
focuses on the domestic determinants of
foreign policy and investigates the relation–
ship between leaders, their publics, and
military interventions. It considers the ques–
tions: How do leaders build and sustain
support for military action? Under what
conditions is the public able to hold leaders
accountable for the use of force? To address
these questions, I examine U.S. presidents'
public justifications for war and their impli–
cations for both U.S. foreign policy and the
development of humanitarian intervention
norms. Her thesis title is “The Humanitarian
Discourse of Force: How U.S. Presidents
Justify Interventions.”
Ilil Naveh-Benjamin’s (Science and Tech-
nology Studies) thesis title is “Half-Hearted
Auditors: Bureaucratic Order and Disorder in
Humanitarian Aid.”
Edmund Oh’s (Development Sociology)
completed his Ph.D. in January 2016 with
the thesis “Resource Governance as
Depoliticized Development: The Rise of
Fisheries Co-management in Vietnam.”
Máté Rigó’s (History) thesis title is
“Imperial Elites after the Fall of Empires:
7
Business Elites and States in Europe’s East
and West 1867–1918.”
Stephen Roblin (Government) examines
American public attitudes towards the
foreign victims of U.S. wars, particularly
focusing on the effect of international law on
public attitudes. His second and primary area
of research is U.S.-Latin America relations.
More specifically, he is interested in why
Latin American states, and weak states more
broadly, seek to challenge the U.S. and other
great powers’ spheres of influence, and under
what conditions these anti-hegemonic efforts
fail and succeed. He helped organize the
inaugural Reppy Institute graduate student
conference, in which students from univer–
sities around the country presented and
received critical feedback on their research.
Timothy Sorg’s (History) is interested in the
transition of ancient Mediterranean states
from regional city-state to territorial empire,
with a special focus on land allotment. His
dissertation is tentatively titled “Imperial
Neighbors: Empires and Land Allotment in
the Ancient Mediterranean World.”
Whitney Taylor (Government) studies
human rights, international law (human
rights and humanitarian, and genocite/mass
atrocities. Her thesis title is “Creating a
Sense of Obligation: Legal Mobilization for
Socioeconomic Rights.” She was the Coor–
dinator for the International Relations Minor
for 2015–16. She plans to conduct field
research in Colombia in 2016–17.
Silvana Toska (Government) studies inter-
national relations and comparative politics,
with a focus on Africa and the Middle East.
Her thesis title is “Revolutionaries Without
Borders: Causes and Consequences of
Revolutionary Waves.” While her disser-
tation provides a theory for the spread of
revolutions broadly, she focuses more closely
on the “Arab Spring,” and has spent several
years researching in the Middle East.
Kelsey Utne’s (History) research focuses on
the memorialization of religious and political
violence in colonial and postcolonial India,
Pakistan, and Afghanistan. She is particularly
interested in the framing of communal vio–
lence and narratives of victimhood in the
interpretive materials (both official and
unofficial) published for sale and the promo–
tion of museums, monuments, and historic
sites. For 2016–17 she was awarded a FLAS
Fellowship at Cornell to study advanced
Hindi.
CONFERENCES
The Mario Einaudi Center for International
Studies provides supplemental funding each
year to support the Institute’s workshops and
conferences.
VISITORS
Our visitors in 2015–2016:
Aaron Donaghy, EU Marie Curie Global
Fellow at Harvard University, studies the
nexus between domestic politics and foreign
policy in the United States and Great Britain,
and how it shapes decision-making at the
executive level. Focusing on the Carter,
Reagan, and Thatcher administrations, he
examines how “intermestic” politics helped
drive the rise and fall of the “Second Cold
War,” from personal ambition and electoral
strategizing, to partisan wrangling and
8
special interest groups. He is a member of
the NukeGeeks, the campus research group
on nuclear issues.
Valère P. (Chip) Gagnon, Jr., Professor,
Department of Politics, Ithaca College, has
been a long-term visiting scholar in the
Reppy Institute. He is working on a book
project on the role of U.S. NGOs in pro–
moting democracy in the Balkans, including
parallels with traditional Christian mis–
sionary work. His other project further
develops the theoretical framework of his
book The Myth of Ethnic War, focusing on
conflictual policies as a strategy of political
demobilization.
Thomas Jonter is Director of Stockholm
University Graduate School of International
Studies, Sweden, and Professor of Inter–
national Relations in the Department of
Economic History. He was a visiting Scholar
at the Reppy Institute March 23–June 15,
2015, and May 1–8, 2016. He explored ways
to strengthen the fledgling Stockholm
University-Cornell collaboration in inter–
national studies: laying plans for an exchange
program between the two institutions and
plan a future conference or workshop
involving researchers from Stockholm
University and Cornell and other institutions
in Sweden (a workshop took place in May
2016 at Stockholm University). He also
collaborated with scholars dealing with
nuclear weapons policy and nuclear disarma–
ment at Cornell, and participated in the
research group NukeGeeks headed by Judith
Reppy and became a partner of her research
project on A Stable Transition to a New
Nuclear Order.
Agnieszka (Agnes) Nimark, comes to the
Reppy Institute from the Security and World
Politics Program, Barcelona Centre for Inter-
national Affairs, where her research has
focused on European and international
security issues, in particular on the role of
international organizations in conflicts/crises
prevention, crises and disasters management
and post-conflict/post-crisis stabilization
efforts. She has participated in Judith
Reppy’s MacArthur grant on “Creating
Conditions for a Stable Transition to a New
Nuclear Order.” She is also a member of the
NukeGeeks, a group that meets regularly to
discuss issues related to nuclear proliferation,
deterrence, and the possibility of stability at
low numbers of nuclear weapons. She is
working with Matthew Evangelista and
Judith Reppy in the preparation of a proposal
for a Grant Program Digital Collections in
Arts and Science at Cornell University, the
goal of which is to create a digital archive on
the US Nuclear Disarmament Movement and
the End of the Cold War.
Joonsoo Park, of the Korea Institute for
Defense Analyses (KIDA), is developing a
case study on Korean civil-military tech–
nology cooperation policies, “Beyond the
dual-use technology – A case study on the
quest for civil-military technology synergies
within the national innovation policy of
Korea.” He joined the NukeGeeks study
group and participated in discussions. He
contributed to Monterey workshop of Judith
Reppy’s for the “New Nuclear Order”
research project, arranging a Korean panel
and commenting on the Korean situation.

CAMPUS ACTIVITIES
The weekly Reppy Institute seminar is the
central activity of the Institute, bringing to-
gether interested faculty, staff, and students
from all parts of the university, as well as
townspeople. Attendance averages 25–30
persons and is sometimes much higher. The
program of seminars for 2015–2016 was
organized by Matthew Evangelista.
The list of seminar speakers and their topics
is given in Appendix A.
The Reppy Institute hosted many other visi-
tors who came to Ithaca to participate in
other Institute activities, and co-sponsored
events that were open to faculty and students
from all parts of the university. The Institute
also provided support to student groups,
departments, and other programs on campus,
who hosted additional events that were of
interest to peace and conflict studies par-
ticipants (see Appendix C).
COURSES
The Reppy Institute has sought to be a cata-
lyst in curriculum development, encouraging
faculty throughout Cornell University to
increase the attention paid in their courses to
issues of war and peace. Institute members
also stimulate interest in this subject through
12
the numerous guest lectures they give in a
wide variety of college courses. These guest
lectures are not included in this listing.
In 2015–2016 the following faculty and grad-
uate students affiliated with the Institute
taught or assisted in Cornell University
courses related to peace and conflict studies:
Amanda Bosworth: Teaching Assistant, The

MacArthur Foundation has provided a series
of institutional grants to the Peace Studies
Program (now the Reppy Institute) to support
graduate work and interdisciplinary research
activities in the field of international security
and peace studies. Funding from the
MacArthur Foundation supported training
and research activities on the themes “Tech-
nology and Security” and “Regional Secu-
rity” through June 2002. In January 2003 the
Peace Studies Program was awarded a $1.1
million grant from the MacArthur Foun-
dation in support of research and training to
strengthen scientific and technical advice on
international peace and security. A $1.86
million renewal grant began 1 July 2006 and
with a two year extension ran through the
end of June 2013.
Faculty members have received numerous
grants for their individual research activities.
These activities have been detailed in other
sections of this annual report.
The establishment of the Marion and Frank
Long Endowment Fund in 1993 was a step
toward building support for graduate educa-
tion on a permanent basis. Income from the
fund is used to provide graduate fellowships
for students in peace studies, with the first
award being made in 1995–1996. The Instit-
ute has been able to expand its support to
graduate students with the addition of a con-
tinuing fellowship for peace studies students
provided by the Cornell Graduate School.
This fellowship was made possible in part
from the Dora and Jesse Bluestone endow-
ment in the Graduate School, which was
moved to the Institute in spring 2013.
A bequest from Harrop and Ruth Freeman
established an endowment in 1995 to con-
tinue to support the Harrop and Ruth Free-
man Prize in Peace Studies. Since 2006 the
endowment has also provided several fel-
lowships to undergraduate students to sup-
port their summer internships with NGOs.
Further information on these awards is given
earlier in this report.
Numerous gifts received from current col-
leagues, alumni, and friends of the Institute
are used to support graduate student fellow-
ships, research, and development and pro-
gram activities.

utive committee of interested faculty mem-
