Ongoing Research Projects

Faculty research is fundamental to the activities of the Center for International and Comparative Studies, and orients its priorities. The specific research activities and programs of the Center respond to the initiatives for faculty members and those spear-headed by the Center. CICS strives to respond flexibly and swiftly to proposed scholarly initiatives.

The results of CICS supported research are made available to the scholarly and public policy communities through books, working papers, articles, reports, seminars and lectures, as well as through the personal participation of Center members in policy planning and decision-making in governments and institutions outside the University.

For further information or to discuss organizing research projects through CICS, please contact the Center Associate Director, Brian Hanson bhanson@northwestern.edu or Director, Andrew Wachtel a-wachtel@northwestern.edu.
