Biography
Derrick Frazier is a political scientist whose research interests focus on two areas: third party conflict management and regional security.

The latter research area explores the dynamics of regional security. Specifically, Dr. Frazier is investigating the behavior of regional powers and their importance in understanding regional security orders. Professor Frazier teaches courses on war, conflict management, international security and American foreign policy.
