I am an associate professor of political science at Northwestern
University. My
main fields of interest are the politics of postcommunist Europe, the quality
of democracy, the causes and consequences of formal institutions, and political behavior. I also write about popular culture in Eastern
Europe and getting a better education. This site contains copies of most of my article-length writings and translations, information about my books, syllabi for classes, and some personal information about me. I'm always happy to receive comments on my writings - good, bad, or ugly. Email me at aroberts@northwestern.edu. You can find my c.v. here.
