I teach and do research on comparative politics.  I received a Ph.D. in political science from the University of California, San Diego, in 1994. Before coming to Dartmouth, I taught at the Universidad Católica de Chile, the University of Rochester, Washington University in St. Louis, and at Harvard. I have also taught at the Fundación Juan March in Madrid, Spain.
 
I specialize in the study of constitutions, legislatures, elections, and Latin American politics.  I've published the following books:
 
  1. •Presidents and Assemblies: Constitutional Design and Electoral Dynamics (1992)
  2. •Term Limits and Legislative Representation (1996)
  3. •Executive Decree Authority (1998)
  4. •Term Limits in the State Legislatures (2000)
  5. •Legislative Voting & Accountability (2009)
 
as well as articles in various journals and chapters in various books.  For more on my courses and current research, click on the links in the navigation menu at the top of this page.  Click here for a full curriculum vitae.
