His career has combined both studying and practicing international administration, focusing on the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) during the Cold War, and on the United Nations. His published works range from detailed discussions of administration in all its forms, to general studies of international relations, focusing on the Euro-Atlantic area. He has served as President of the International Studies Association and has been a member of many other scholarly associations, including the Royal Institute of International Affairs, the Center for Strategic and International Studies, the American Society for Public Administration, the International Studies Association, and the Committee on Atlantic Studies.
He has served in the administration or on the faculties (or both) of a variety of universities, including The George Washington University, Columbia University, Fourah Bay College of the University of Sierra Leone, the U.S. Brigham Young University, Lancaster University (U.K.), the Air War College, and the U.S. Naval War College.
Dr. Jordan’s interest in his Mormon legacy, encouraged by his wife Jane, prompted him to write A Diasporan Mormon’s Life: Essays of Remembrance in 2009. The present volume of RBJ’s life was inspired by this earlier research and encouraged by Ralph B. “Jock” Jordan III.weniger sehen
