- The full monograph draws on extensive and complex research published across multiple separate articles (in prominent journals, such as International Affairs and Security Studies), expanding that data and analysis even further to present a comprehensive, in-depth, and far-reaching discussion of chemical weapons use, specifically within the context of US foreign policy. The analysis is based on a large empirical dataset of presidential rhetoric, which was specifically compiled by the author for the project and analysed in depth over three years, including complex coding. The theoretical framework comprises an original and major advancement on existing understandings of political norms and rhetoric.
