Expertise: I am a comparativist who studies the politics of development using qualitative methods. My research is particularly concerned with the nexus between authoritarian regimes, identity politics, and development in South Korea and China. My doctoral dissertation dealt with how authoritarian regimes nurtured the urban middle classes in South Korea and China in order to reconstruct the nation and strengthen political legitimacy. I am currently working on a book manuscript based on my dissertation work
