I am the Amy and Alan Lowenstein Professor of Democracy, Democratization, and Human Rights in the Department of Political Science at the University of Michigan as well as the director of the International Institute.
I received my Ph.D. in politics in 2001 from Princeton University and my B.A. from Smith College in 1991. In 1989, I was a foreign student in China at Nanjing University. I later on taught at the Foreign Affairs College in Beijing from 1996-1997. I was a Fulbright Research Scholar from 2003 to 2004 at East China University of Politics and Law in Shanghai, China. In 2012-2013, I was a visiting professor at the Koguan School of Law at Shanghai Jiaotong University.
My book, Authoritarian Legality in China: Law, Workers, and the State is out from Cambridge University Press this year. I have also written/edited several other books, including Contagious Capitalism: Globalization and the Politics of Labor in China (Princeton 2005), Chinese Justice: Civil Dispute Resolution in Contemporary China (Cambridge 2011), From Iron Rice Bowl to Informalization: Markets, Workers, and the State in a Changing China (Cornell 2011), and Contemporary Chinese Politics: New Sources, Methods, and Field Strategies (Cambridge 2010).
