What is Son of a Diplomat?

Welcome to Son of a Diplomat, a Substack about global conflict and rising world tension. My name is Robert Davis Edelman—I grew up a Foreign Service brat with childhood split between the United States, Czechia, Finland, and Turkey.

I served as a Special Assistant in Liz Cheney’s congressional office during her first term, but these days I mostly stay occupied producing SoaD’s eponymous diplomat and Eliot Cohen on The Bulwark podcast, Shield of the Republic.
