Professor Cohrs received his doctorate from the University of Oxford in 2002. He has held fellowships at the Center for European Studies and the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at Harvard University. Before coming to Yale, he was the Alistair Horne Fellow at St. Anthony's College, Oxford, and taught as assistant professor at Humboldt University Berlin. He is the author of The Unfinished Peace after World War I: America, Britain and the Stabilisation of Europe, 1919-1932 (Cambridge University Press, 2006). Professor Cohrs is currently working on a history of the "Pax Americana," which re-appraises American pursuits of a "new world order" from their origins to the Cold War and explores how far they contributed to the emergence of a more legitimate international system. He teaches courses in US international history and the history of European and international politics.
Professor Cohrs is also affiliated with the MacMillan Center for International and Area Studies. He is a residential fellow at Branford College.
