Welcome to my page.
My research explores how decentralized groups in conflict and post-conflict regions navigate collective action without a central authority. My current work focuses on the Southeast Asia, especially post-coup Myanmar.
I see collective action as a driver of change within and between groups. I ask how decentralized actors coordinate across scales, take risks for public goods, and constrain free-riding — and how these efforts transform inter-group relations.
I use qualitative and experimental methods to understand these processes during conflict.
