SELİM ERDEM AYTAÇ

Welcome!

I am an Associate Professor of Political Science in the Department of International Relations at Koç University in Istanbul, Turkey. I hold a Ph.D. in Political Science from Yale University. 

My research interests lie in political behavior with a focus on electoral accountability and political participation. My work has been published in the American Political Science Review, Journal of Politics, British Journal of Political Science, and Comparative Political Studies, among others. I am the co-author (with Susan Stokes) of Why Bother? Rethinking Participations in Elections and Protests (Cambridge, 2019).
