Research

My research interests fall in the fields of International Relations and Comparative Politics. While substantive subjects that interest me are broad, my main research concerns the impact of institutions particularly in studies of international and comparative political economy, including causes and effects of foreign direct investment and official development assistance, shadow economy, domestic and international commitment institutions and their interactions, and institutional performances in autocracies.
