?

Research areas: 
Comparative Government and Politics
Areas of interest: 

My research interests are centered around "the state," its construction, its boundary, its internal dynamics, and its constitutive interactions with "non-state" forces.

Empirically, I focus on the People's Republic of China and examine interactions between different levels of local governments, between different legal and judicial institutions, the issue of agency control, the building of bureaucracy, and the epistemology of the state.??Methodologically, I adopt qualitative and historical approaches.

Topic areas: the political economy of development, law and politics, contentious politics, comparative authoritarianism
