ABOUT ME
I am a professor of comparative politics at the Institute of Social Science, University of Tokyo. I am originally from Ireland but was raised in Tokyo, Japan. I moved to the United States for my BA at Princeton University, obtained a PhD in political science from Stanford, and taught at a number of universities (Stanford, Michigan), before returning to Japan in 2015.
** In 2024-25, I am on sabbatical leave at Columbia University.
