Jonathan A. Chu
Welcome! I am a Presidential Young Professor (Assistant Professor) in international affairs at the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy at the National University of Singapore.
My research shows how political opinion, norms, and psychology affect the domestic politics of democracy and war. It has been published in peer-reviewed publications such as International Studies Quarterly, Journal of Conflict Resolution, World Politics, Journal of Politics, and the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. This research has also received grant support from the U.S. National Science Foundation as well as the International Studies Association's Finkelstein Best Paper Prize (International Organization), American Political Science Association’s Weber Best Paper Prize (Religion and Politics), and the TESS Young Investigators Award.
In addition to my research, I teach, consult, and give talks/training on issues of international affairs, democracy, and survey methodology. My experience in research management includes serving as co-founder and director of research at CivicPulse, lab manager of the Stanford Survey Lab, and chair of the Master in International Affairs (MIA) programme at the LKY School.
I received a B.A. in political science from UC San Diego, and a Ph.D. also in political science from Stanford University. I completed my postdoctoral work at Perry World House at the University of Pennsylvania. Outside the academy, I'm always on the hunt for good places to hike, eat, and listen to classical music.
