I joined the
Political Science Department at MIT in 1999. My research and teaching
interests span the fields of political economy and comparative politics.
Most of my current work focuses on institutions--especially the political
and fiscal institutions of federalism. Please click on the links to
the left to download recent newspaper articles, syllabi, unpublished
papers, book chapters, and information about workshops and collaborators.
Please contact me for reprints of journal articles.
New working
papers and a preliminary version of my book manuscript have recently
been added. Furthermore, the product of a recent collaborative research
project with the World Bank, entitled Fiscal Decentralization
and the Challenge of Hard Budget Constraints, is now available
from MIT
Press.
