About Us

The University of Washington Political Economy Forum brings together diverse scholars, policymakers, and citizens interested in liberal democracy, development, and innovation. The Forum is dedicated to increasing interdisciplinary knowledge and collaboration between researchers working at the intersection of political science, economics, and public policy. What we share in common are theoretical, methodological, and policy interests that speak to important social, economic, and political issues. We believe in evidence-based policy centered on facts, logic, and evidence. We don’t endorse policy-based evidence making, and never will…instead, we seek to shrink the outsize space currently occupied by ideology.
