Areas of interests => See also Publication list
My research is in the area of public international law. I am particularly interested in issues of arms control, international security as well as the law of armed conflict. I am interested in contemporary arms control regimes based on multilateral treaties, including the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons. I've recently wrote a book review on Annie Jacobsen's Nuclear War: A Scenario. Though not an academic book, it provides much food for thought for all of us.
