Robert Powell was a leading scholar on the application of game theory to international conflicts, from nuclear confrontations to global terrorism and multi-sided civil conflicts in failing states. His research focused on war, international conflict, the role of force in international bargaining, the politics of weakly institutionalized states, and nuclear deterrence. Later, Powell focused heavily on the analysis of multi-sided conflicts.
