Recent articles also deal with security and regional integration initiatives (Korea Institute of National Integration, July 2006), EU interest groups' recourse to litigation versus lobbying strategies (Journal of European Politics and Policy, Spring 2007), and strategic game design (Joint Force Quarterly, 2005).

Prior to joining NDU, Dr. McCown was a research fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Research in Collective Goods in Bonn where she wrote and published on European Union judicial politics and participated in several working groups on bounded rationality and institutional design. She holds a doctorate from Oxford University (2004, Nuffield College), a masters in European Politics and Policy from the LSE (1998) and a B.A. in political science from St. Mary's College of Maryland.
