UPDATED EA on the Road: Reaching the "Sub-Chomskyan"

UPDATE 0715 GMT, 29 APRIL: Back from a long day in London --- many thanks to Mike Dunn for holding the fort and to EA readers for keeping the conversation going.

Two highlights from the conference, which should be out on video soon. One was a paper from an emerging scholar, Maria Ryan of the University of Nottingham, taking apart the idea that US "neoconservatives" have the priority of democracy promotion.

The other was a London lecturer who got just a bit upset and called me "sub-Chomskyan". I thank him and shall wear that as a badge of honour.

'll be in London today for a conference on US Foreign Policy and "Democracy Promotion". Mike Dunn will be minding the shop (and sorting out our Comments crisis Fixed!). Iran updates will be limited, but we already have a set of new features for you to consider and take apart.
