I study international relations and comparative politics, with a focus on the problems of nationalism and national identity, especially in Russia and Japan. So far, my research has focused on the process of formation of national identities and their impact on foreign policy. More recently, I have broadened my interest to include how “globalization” is transforming nationalism as the constitutive principle of political communities. I teach the following classes to undergraduates and master-level students: 1) Introduction to IR, 2) IR theory, 3) Japanese foreign policy, 4) comparative politics of post-communist states, 5) nationalism, citizenship, and democracy in Japan, and 6) regional security in Northeast Asia.

Routledge, Sep 4, 2018 (ISBN: 9781138290488) RefereedThis book is a comparative historical study of how the two "non-Western" great powers emerged as challengers to the prevailing international order in the interwar period, each seeking to establish an alternative order. Specifically, Anno examines the parallels and contrasts in the ways in which the Russian and Japanese elites sought to define the two countries’ national identities, and how those definitions influenced the two countries’ attitudes toward the prevailing order. At the intersection of international relations theory, comparative politics, and of historical sociology, this book offers an integrated perspective on the rise of challengers to the liberal international order in the early-twentieth century.
