Patrick M Kuhn

I am a Professor of Comparative Politics and currently Deputy Head of School (Education) in the School of Government and International Affairs (SGIA) at Durham University. I am a member of the Centre of Institutions and Political Behavior (CIPB), which I led during the academic year 2021/22.

I specialize in Comparative Political Economy, with a special interest in the relationship between democratic institutions, economic development, and political violence. My research has been published or is forthcoming in the American Economic Journal: Economic Policy, International Organization, Political Analysis, Political Science Research and Methods, Public Opinion Quarterly, Quarterly Journal of Political Science, and other peer-reviewed journals.
