Congrats to you and Tom on the APSR piece. Readers not in the discipline should know that Political Scientists as a group consider it the field's top journal.

I'm looking forward to reading it.

Oh, and good job on the book manuscript too.

Kick back this holiday weekend and enjoy yourself.

I had the same thought re: APSR, so I want to echo Rodger's sentiment. Congratulations on the publication! I look forward to squeezing this one in.

Congrats Dan! I know how much work you put in to that piece and that getting in the APSR is not the easiest get in the world.

And good luck with the book manu--do let us know if there are any bites...

"and preeminent powers face special problems of legitimating their bargains across heterogeneous audiences"

No access to the full article but I like that argument Dan. It's most likely a scalable principle that could apply to any political situation where an actor deals with fractionated complexity.

Perhaps one answer to this problem is the use of calculated ambiguity.

Thanks all.

Mark: that's a very important point, one that I'm expanding upon in a short piece right now .
