Spittin Foreign Policy Game


What? Why didn't I think of this? Were this written 10 years ago I would have thought about grad school for political science (I still wouldn't have gotten in though). But anyway. It's by a GW poli sci Prof who noticed the same brinksmanship occuring in the relations between rap luminaries as occurs between world powers. To explain it he decided to apply foreign policy models to their behavior. Its pretty funny/cool.
Fools are wilin out on this. Me included. It's hilariously awesome.

The author's blog discusses the reaction here. (with an awesome tupac reference in the title).

And the times article on it is here.
