Research Assistants and Coauthors

I am searching for volunteer research assistants to work on current projects – the tradeoff between democracy and security in post-conflict countries (Cambodia, East Timor, Bosnia, Kosovo, Afghanistan, and Iraq).  Most of your time will be spent answering questions by writing memoranda and reading and commenting on my work or the work of other RAs.

It should be clear that you do RA work to learn something, and hopefully to lead to a strong letter of recommendation. 

If you are interested in doing this, you should email me a resume and a description of your interests. 

I am very inclined to coauthor pieces with people who take up this invitation and who do good work.  In past years, we have placed articles in Asian Development Review (Asian Development Bank), Asian Survey (University of California Press), Development and Change (Institute of International Studies, The Hague), World’s Poultry Science Journal (Cambridge University Press), in World Fascism: A Historical Encyclopedia (ABC Clio, 2006), and World History Encyclopedia (ABC Clio, forthcoming).
