Daniel W. Drezner
Daniel W. Drezner (born August 23, 1968) is an American political scientist. He is known for his scholarship and commentary on international relations and international political economy.
He is Distinguished Professor of International Politics and Academic Dean at The Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University. He was previously in the department of political science at the University of Chicago as an assistant professor until 2006. He is a nonresident senior fellow at the Project on International Order and Strategy at the Brookings Institution.
Drezner co-hosts The Nation's "Space The Nation" podcast, which "looks at science fiction through the lens of political science". He authors Drezner's World at Substack.
Born in 1968 to a religiously conservative Jewish household in Syracuse, New York, Drezner attended and is a graduate of a Hebrew high school as well as a secular high school. Drezner received a B.A. degree in political economy from Williams College in 1990. He received his M.A. and Ph.D. degrees from Stanford University, where his advisor was Stephen Krasner.
Drezner rarely discusses his political loyalties, but in 2011 he wrote: "I find liberals write 'even conservative Dan Drezner...' while conservatives often deploy terms like 'academic elitist' or 'RINO'. In my case, at this point in time, I believe that last appellation to be entirely fair and accurate. I'm not a Democrat, and I don't think I've become more liberal over time."
Drezner supported the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq, writing that "a successful invasion not only eliminates the Iraqi threat, but over the long run it reduces the Arab resentment that feeds Al-Qaeda."
Drezner was a signatory to a March 2016 open letter by Republican national security community members that opposed Donald Trump as the Republican nominee for U.S. president. Drezner announced in July 2017 that he was no longer part of the Republican Party. In October 2017, he recommended resignation to Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.
Drezner has published columns, essays, and op-eds in many media outlets, including The New Republic, Foreign Affairs, Foreign Policy, The New York Times, Slate, Tech Central Station, and The Wall Street Journal. He has been a frequent guest on Bloggingheads.tv and various other broadcast media. He originally blogged on his website, DanielDrezner.com, but moved in January 2009 to become a contributing blogger at ForeignPolicy.com. Drezner then moved to The Washington Post in 2014, eventually leaving in 2022. He has moderated and spoken at various Council on Foreign Relations events.
