Kim-Lee Tuxhorn

 

 

I am an associate professor of political science at the University of Calgary. I study international relations with an emphasis in international and comparative political economy. Generally, I am interested in understanding how states bargain over international economic arrangements that have distributive consequences for their domestic principals. My research seeks to explain interdisciplinary questions that are fundamental to international commerce and diplomacy. My primary research program examines public opinion toward foreign economic policies and the politics of trade negotiations. My research has appeared in American Journal of Political Science, Canadian Journal of Political Science, and International Studies Quarterly. I have taught multiple courses at the undergraduate level including international political economy and research methods, and international political economy at the graduate level.

Prior to Calgary, I received my Ph.D. in Political Science from the University of Colorado at Boulder, a Master of International Studies from Seoul National University, and a B.A. from Colorado College.
