My talk on the Causes of WW1

[KTravlos]

For the 100 year anniversary I held a review lecture of the state of findings and ideas on the Causes of World War in the peace-science (international) tradition of the study of International Relations and in sight of the new historiography of the last 4-5 years. Nothing special or rigorous about it (I am political scientist, not a historian, and this is not original research), but I thought some may find it interesting. Plus you get to find out what I look like in real life :p

Great to hear a non-Anglo-Centric viewpoint too.

It was all the fault of the serbs.

Of course he's not as good as those

Very enjoyable presentation and learnt quite a bit of stuff in relation to the Balkans and Istanbul .

[KTravlos]

Thank you all! You praise is too much I assure you. But I do need to make up for my less than stellar peer- reviewed publication record. 

As for the horrible histories! Curses! And I though I was happy! Next time! Next time I tell you! Muahahahahahahaha

There is another side to this; you actually look like your name.

[KTravlos]

Well then! That is indeed very interesting. Long name=big fellow with beard :p

Don't know the name "fits" you; it just does
