Political Scientist Analyst

This pulls out the political science textbook to analyze events through Realism, Liberalism, and Constructivism. You'd reach for it when covering international conflicts, elections, regime changes, or policy shifts where you need more than punditry. It applies IR theory frameworks (power balances, institutional constraints, norm diffusion) and walks through comparative politics methodology. The theoretical grounding is solid, drawing from Morgenthau, Waltz, and Keohane, though it reads more academic than operational. Best when you need structured analysis of state behavior, institutional effects, or why actors made specific strategic choices rather than hot takes on breaking news.
