Overview

My research focuses on the domestic determinants and consequences of interstate conflict and on political competition. With domestic determinants of interstate conflict, I study the effect of civil conflict, nonstate actors, domestic institutions, and public opinion on interstate conflict processes. With domestic consequences of interstate conflict, I study the effect of interstate conflict on civil conflict processes, voting behavior, public opinion, and foreign policy party issue ownership perceptions. I also study how parties compete over and manage issue ownership over foreign policy.
