Personal Info:
Political Science degree with a strong emphasis in Peace Studies. Human Rights and
Regional Structures of Security are my specialty.
So, I really like the game of politics and do it for a living. Run political stuff in front of
me with good analysis and I will be thrilled. Run it poorly and I will most likely want to
drop you, so do so at your own risk.
Don’t lie. If I catch you, your speaker points will be punished. If the other team catches
you and I agree, you will most likely lose the round. Sorry.
Moderate on international policy and on economics, liberal on social issues.
Approach of the critic to decision-making (for example, adherence to the trichotomy,
stock-issues, policymaker, tabula rasa, etc.):
