Event description: 

Yale political scientist Isabela Mares, the Arnold Wolfers Professor of Political Science, will discuss her latest book “Conditionality and Coercion”
Mares conducted an intensive multi-year investigation of political clientelism — illegal exchanges of goods and services for political support — in several Eastern European nations. Her research combined ethnography, an observational method used in anthropology for studying cultures in depth, with a variety of survey experiments. She describes her findings in “Conditionality and Coercion,” a new book coauthored with Lauren Young, an assistant professor of political science at the University of California-Davis.
