Research & Teaching

My published research focuses on political institutions, parties, and elections. I regularly teach classes on Russian politics, Russian foreign policy, and elections outside the United States.

My current book manuscript, “Russia versus the Council of Europe: Annexing Crimea and Managing the Consequences,” examines Russia’s influence in Europe following Russia’s aggression against Ukraine in 2014. Party Politics in Russia and Ukraine (2022) analyzes the effects of electoral system changes on the behavior of parties and legislators across regime types. In The Regional Roots of Russia’s Political Regime (2017), Bill Reisinger and I use electoral politics at the national and subnational levels to investigate the resurgence of authoritarianism in Russia. Elections by Design (2006), meanwhile, examines the origins of subnational legislative electoral systems in Russia following the collapse of the Soviet Union.
