I am Maxwell.
Civic engagement is a core value for me. I have always aspired to help the communities I’m from.” Mazaher Kaila, a Maxwell alumna and third-year student at Syracuse University's College of Law, moved with her family from Sudan to Central New York when she was four years old. “I realized that to make meaningful change in society, I needed to understand the systems that power it—government and politics—and that’s insight I would gain by studying political science.”

Multidimensional incongruence, political disaffection, and support for anti-establishment parties
Ryan Bakker, Seth Jolly & Jonathan Polk
Journal of European Public Policy, February 2020
"Multidimensional incongruence, political disaffection, and support for anti-establishment parties," co-authored by Associate Professor of Political Science Seth Jolly, was published in the Journal of European Public Policy. Using data from the Chapel Hill Expert Survey (CHES) for party positions and public opinion data from the European Election Study (EES), Jolly and his co-authors found that multidimensional incongruence is associated with disaffection at the national and European level, and that disaffected mainstream party voters are in turn more likely to consider voting for anti-establishment challenger parties. 02/04/20

One of only 15 scholars chosen from across the U.S., Zhang will receive up to $200,000 in research funding over the next two years. Zhang will use the funding to partner with the nonprofit, non-partisan Center for New Democratic Processes to test whether public participation in AI governance is increased through the creation of public assemblies, known as “deliberative democracy workshops.”
