PROFILE:
I have broad interests in urban and political geography. My political
interests lie in the electoral process including campaign financing
and what works and does not work in electoral campaigning. I have
broad interests in electoral behavior and why voters cast ballots
in the way that they do and the impact that electoral districting,
particularly districting is used to gain advantage for one political
party, or social group has been a major focus of my research interests.
My urban/political research agenda focuses on the methods and techniques
by which space is dissected by political boundaries. These boundaries
determine how cities function, how they grow, how efficiently and
effectively they deliver services to residents, and ultimately if
they remain healthy or not. Ultimately my interests lie in exploring
the relationaship among annexation, incorporation, political fragmentation
and the health of cities.
