The 2019 Workshop on Comparative Political Selection

Student Session

June 4-5, 2019

National School of Development, Peking University

Beijing, China

 

Political selection and political leadership has become an increasingly important topic in the literatures of political science and economics in the past decades. The developed and developing countries face the same problem of how to select competent leaders and ensure their incentives to serve the public interests. The Third International Workshop on Comparative Political Selection will host scholars in political science and economics to present papers on a variety of topics, including the mechanisms of political meritocracy, populism, accountability, political competition in authoritarianism, non-electoral motives of politicians, and democratic backsliding. This year, we will organize a special session for graduate students to present their in-progress research projects broadly related to political selection. We welcome manuscripts from all topics, methodologies, and area focus. The accepted manuscripts will be presented and discussed by senior scholars at the workshop.
