Jeremy is an Assistant Professor of Political Science and Public Policy at University College London (UCL). He works on the political economy of development: both in understanding the causes and consequences of shocks to state capacity, and in evaluating the dynamics of political selection and accountability. To do so, he focuses regionally on Sub-Saharan Africa, leverages natural and field experimental methods, and draws evidence from both historical and contemporary contexts. Prior to UCL, he was a postdoctoral fellow at the King Center on Global Development at Stanford University and received his PhD from Harvard University. His work has been published in the American Journal of Political Science and the American Political Science Review.
