Welcome to Brandon Valeriano's International Relations Blog. This space will be used to keep my students, friends and colleagues updated with international news, research, class issues, and anything else I think is interesting. Please feel free to let me know if you think the blog is missing coverage of something.
"Part of the genius of people like Einstein, or of any great artist for that matter, is the ability to see the obvious, the things we take for granted, and question it in a new way and make its inherent strangeness apparent." Overbye, NYTimes

the political cartoon, though poking fun at the current situation is very telling. The American Revolution for the first three quarters of it was constant failure and lack of support. Enlistments were ending, the militia had not been paid in months, and they were lacking basic supplies, yet people stuck through the battle. Can you imagine that today, if our military was not getting paid or given basic supplies like boots or uniforms? Motivation is severely lacking in todays society.
