Abstract
Jeffrey Checkel is Professor of International Studies and Simons Chair in International Law and Human Security at Simon Fraser University. In addition to his position at Simon Fraser University, Checkel is also Research Professor at the Centre for the Study of Civil War at the International Peace Research Institute Oslo (PRIO), where he leads a working group on 'Transnational and International Facets of Civil War.' Checkel's research and teaching interests include international relations theory (international institutions, constructivism, transnational politics, civil war), European integration (socialization dynamics, identity), human rights, and qualitative methods. His current research projects include Mobilizing Across Borders: Transnational Mechanisms of Civil War, which explores the relation of the transnational to the local in the context of civil war, and The More the Better? Human Rights Law in a Changing Europe, which explores the consequences of the growing amount of human-rights lawmaking at the European regional level. Checkel is the author of Ideas and International Political Change: Soviet/Russian Behavior and the End of the Cold War (Yale University Press, 1997), editor of International Institutions and Socialization in Europe (Cambridge University Press, 2007), and co-editor (with Peter J. Katzenstein) of European Identity (Cambridge University Press, 2009). His numerous reviews and articles have appeared in American Political Science Review, Comparative Political Studies, European Journal of International Relations, European Union Politics, International Organization, International Studies Quarterly, International Studies Review, Review of International Studies and World Politics. Checked received his Ph.D. in Defense and Arms Control Studies from the Department of Political Science at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He received his B.S. from the School of Applied and Engineering Physics at Cornell University.
