Mass Pardons in America
GRAHAM G. DODDS
“Clearly written, fast-paced, and engaging. Mass Pardons in America is essential reading for anyone interested in the presidency, clemency, and rhetoric.”
—Jeffrey Crouch, author of The Presidential Pardon Power
This book is the first comprehensive study of how presidential mass pardons have helped put domestic insurrections to rest. Graham G. Dodds examines when and why presidents have issued mass pardons and amnesties to deal with domestic rebellion and attempt to reunite the country. He analyzes how presidents have used both deeds and words—proclamations of mass pardons and persuasive rhetoric—in order to foster political reconciliation.
GRAHAM G. DODDS is professor of political science at Concordia University. He is the author of Take Up Your Pen: Unilateral Presidential Directives in American Politics (2013) and The Unitary Presidency (2019).

Making War on the World
How Transnational Violence Reshapes Global Order
MARK SHIRK
“Drawing on an innovative combination of historical and contemporary cases, this book will be of enormous interest to students and scholars of both
historical international relations and contemporary nonstate violence.”
—Jordan Branch, author of The Cartographic State: Maps, Territory, and the Origins of Sovereignty
Mark Shirk examines historical and contemporary state responses to transnational violence to develop a new account of the making of global orders. He considers a series of crises that plagued the state system in different eras: golden-age piracy in the eighteenth century, anarchist “propagandists of the deed” at the turn of the twentieth, and al Qaeda in recent years. Shirk argues that states redraw conceptual boundaries to make sense of and defeat transnational threats.
MARK SHIRK is a lecturer in international relations at the University of Cambridge and a fellow in politics at Sidney Sussex College.
