Personal bio
Alison McQueen (BA, Guelph; MA, Toronto; PhD, Cornell) is an Assistant Professor of Political Science. Her research focuses on early modern political theory and the history of International Relations thought. Alisonâ??s current book project, Political Realism in Apocalyptic Times, traces the responses of three canonical political realistsâ??NiccolÃ⊃2; Machiavelli, Thomas Hobbes, and Hans Morgenthauâ??to hopes and fears about the end of the world. Her other ongoing research projects explore philosemitism in seventeenth-century English political thought, methods of textual interpretation, and the normative commitments of political realism. In addition to her academic pursuits, Alison enjoys biking, art, and films.
