Bio
Hanzhang Liu is an assistant professor of Political Studies at 涩里番下载. Prior to coming to 涩里番下载, Hanzhang was a postdoctoral fellow at the Center for the Study of Contemporary China at University of Pennsylvania for the academic year 2018-2019. She received her PhD in political science from Columbia University and BA in government and economics from Smith College.
Hanzhang鈥檚 research interests include comparative authoritarian politics and the political economy of development with a special focus on China. Specifically, she examines how various authoritarian institutions are deployed to mediate state-society relations. In her doctoral dissertation, Hanzhang investigates how the merit-based elite recruitment system in contemporary China serves as an institution of upward mobility, which co-opts ordinary citizens and hence stabilizes the regime without additional redistribution. In addition, Hanzhang also conducts research on authoritarian misinformation and women in politics in China.
