The latest volume of the Icelandic Review of Politics & Administration is now out, featuring two of my articles; one of them delving deep into history, analysing Iceland's external affairs in the Late Middle Ages, while the other one looks to a hypothetical future, sketching the outlines of an independent Scotland.
Although their subjects are seperated by half a millennium, both papers revolve around the concept of shelter and its importance for small states in the turbulent arena of world politics.
‘Scotland as an Independent Small State: Where would it seek shelter?’ was co-authored by Alyson JK Bailes and Rachael Lorna Johnstone.
‘Iceland’s External Affairs from 1400 to the Reformation: Anglo-German Economic and Societal Shelter in a Danish Political Vacuum’ was co-authored by Þorsteinn Kristinsson.
