Jonathan A. Chu
Welcome to my webpage. 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 norms, opinion, and psychology affect the domestic politics of democracy and war.
My peer-reviewed articles appear in Science, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Journal of Politics, World Politics, and Journal of Conflict Resolution, among others. My forthcoming book, Social Cues: How the Liberal Community Legitimizes Humanitarian Wars, theorizes and demonstrates a novel mechanism for how international organizations like NATO legitimize foreign policy and will be published by Cambridge University Press, Elements in International Relations series.
This research has received grant funding and recognition from the U.S. National Science Foundation, International Studies Association (Finkelstein Paper Prize, International Organization), American Political Science Association (Weber Paper Prize, Religion and Politics), and other organizations.
In addition to my research, I teach, consult, and speak on issues of international affairs, democracy, and survey methodology. My experience in research and academic leadership includes serving as the founding director of research of CivicPulse, lab manager of the Stanford Survey Lab, and chair of the Master in International Affairs (MIA) programme at the LKY School. I currently serve on the editorial board of International Relations of the Asia-Pacific, International Studies Quarterly, and Journal of Experimental Political Science.
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 my work, I'm always on the hunt for good places to hike, eat, and listen to classical music.
