Hello!

My name is Eric Min, and I am an Assistant Professor of Political Science at the University of California, Los Angeles. I received my Ph.D. in Political Science at Stanford University, where I was also the Zukerman Postdoctoral Fellow at the Center for International Security and Cooperation for the 2017-2018 academic year. I was a Henry Frank Guggenheim Foundation Distinguished Scholar in 2021-22.

My primary research interests include the intersection of interstate war and diplomacy; international security and conflict management; and the application of machine learning, text, and statistical methods to study these topics. My work is published in the American Political Science Review, International Organization, Journal of Conflict Resolution, Journal of Peace Research, and the Journal of Strategic Studies.

My dissertation, entitled “Negotiation in War,” was the recipient of the 2018 Kenneth Waltz Dissertation Prize from APSA’s International Security Section.

My book manuscript, titled Words of War: Negotiations as a Tool of Conflict, is part of the Studies in Security Affairs series at Cornell University Press and will be available in February 2025.
