Book Project

My book project, Ties That Bind: Representation and Redistribution in Western Europe, examines how the places in which people live shape their political voice and their access to public resources. It brings together research on residential and economic segregation, political participation, representation, and distributive politics to show how spatial inequality becomes political inequality. The project focuses on the mechanisms connecting local context to political behavior, including social networks and relationships with political intermediaries. In doing so, it explains why geographically concentrated disadvantage can persist even where formal political rights are broadly shared and why similar groups may experience different political outcomes across places.
