Power, costs, collective action, bargaining, and solidarity
American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.Abstract Some argue that the more costly it would be to exercise one's power over an issue, the less power one inherently has over it. I challenge this thesis with two major objections—one conceptual, the other practical or explanatory—contending that costs influence issue‐power not inherently but contingently in specifically strategic contexts.

Networks of coercion: Military ties and civilian leadership challenges in China
American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.Abstract Civilian‐led coups are one of the most common routes to losing power in autocracies. How do authoritarian leaders secure themselves from civilian leadership challenges? We argue that autocrats differentiate civilian rivals in part by their social ties to the military.
