Laura Roselle, co-author of Strategic Narratives with Ben O'Loughlin and Alister Miskimmon, has published a short article in The Conversation explaining why Americans and Russians see the world differently. This was prompted by US Secretary of State John Kerry's recent remark that he lives in a "parallel universe" to his Russian counterparts. Laura uses strategic narrative theory to explain why this is the case. This is of huge importance, since it explains why the US and Russia cannot agree how to deal with the crisis in Syria.

Laura, Ben and Alister will published a new volume on strategic narratives in 2017.
