Low Energy and High Friction: How Domestic Determinants Shape U.S. National Security Policy in the Asia-Pacific
"The number of non-governmental factors that can shape a society's foreign policy is staggering, and, accordingly, the task of piecing them together into a coherent whole is extraordinarily complex. This essay aims to assess many sources in many diverse situations, posing questions that Rosenau warns are 'resistant to coherent analysis' and dealing with cause and effect links that 'are not easily observed' where the number of factors to consider is 'staggering' and 'the task of piecing them together. . . .is extraordinarily complex.' Even if expectations about the findings cannot be high, the effort is well worth attempting."

Norms for Assassination by Remotely Piloted Vehicle
"This article briefly summarizes what is known about the formation and revision of norms and applies that knowledge to the ongoing process of norm formation in the United States with regard to remotely piloted vehicles as they are currently being used for assassination. It focuses particularly on the use of drones in Afghanistan, but its arguments apply to their use in places like Yemen, Somalia, and Libya as well. It recommends distinguishing between the military's and the CIA's [Central Intelligence Agency] drone programs, finds that the military's program is far more in line with American norms and argues that the CIA's program should be terminated or brought into line with those norms."
