Sanne Verschuren

Sanne is assistant professor in International Security at Boston University. She was previously a Marie Slodowska-Curie fellow with the Nuclear Knowledges programme between September 2022 and July 2023. Her research interests lie at the intersection of international relations, the domestic determinants of security policy, and the role of ideas, norms, and institutions in national security decision-making. She focuses on how states fight war, examining why they construct novel weapon technologies, how they envision fielding such technologies, and why they choose to abandon certain technologies and practices.
