My name is Thomas Scherer. I have worked in government at the US Institute of Peace, academia at the University of California, San Diego, non-profits at the think tank fp21, and media at Bloomberg Economics. I am a volunteer firefighter, gamer, and husky dad. I earned a PhD in international relations from Princeton University.
I am the author of AbroadReview, a living literature review on topics in foreign policy and international relations (also available on Beehiiv and Substack). It’s goal is to provide a clear perspective on world events based on theories and evidence from international relations academic research.
