WOTR Podcast: Counterterrorism With Partner Countries: Promise or Peril?

Ryan Evans and Stephen Tankel
June 7, 2018

Partner cooperation is crucial when it comes to fighting terrorism, but it’s also complex. Stephen Tankel, assistant professor at American University and — most importantly — a senior editor here at War on the Rocks, examines U.S. counterterrorism cooperation in his new book With Us and Against Us: How America’s Partners Help and Hinder the War on Terror. He and Ryan chatted about troublesome partners like Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, how young academics can be more policy-engaged, and what Stephen drank to celebrate reaching major academic milestones.

 

Be sure to check out Stephen’s book.
