CURRENT RESEARCH ACTIVITIES On-going research program on the democratic process in the United States intended to develop systematic theory about the representational activities of members of

the U.S. Congress. The work in progress especially explores how “models” of representation like the belief sharing, delegate, responsible party, and trustee ones can be used to characterize constituency representation in individual Congressional districts.

I also write occasionally on scientific literacy. The most recent published work on this topic is a journal article in PS: Political Science & Politics that proposes a fundamental body of knowledge that University educated individuals should know to be scientifically literate in political science.
