My research interests encompass the intersection of public policymaking, public administration, public opinion, social justice, and public inequality, primarily in the global south and occasionally in the United States. My work can be classified into three interrelated areas of investigation: 1) the role of public policymaking and social justice and public inequality; 2) the administration of public policy and social justice and public inequality; and 3) public opinion’s impact on social justice and public inequality.
I am keenly interested in examining the relationship between public policymaking, social justice, and inequality, particularly in the Global South. My inquiries within this research cluster focus on policymaking in areas such as criminal justice, healthcare, immigration, elections, and education, and are approached from a critical perspective.
In addition, my second research interest is in public policy administration, social justice, and public inequality, which is centered on how policy implementation can lead to the creation of social justice and inequality issues. With a particular emphasis on the Global South, my work explores the administration of policies related to healthcare, immigration, elections, criminal justice, and education. Ultimately, my research seeks to highlight the potential for poor policy implementation to exacerbate social justice and inequality issues.
My third area of research focuses on public opinion, social justice, and public inequality, which encompass public perception and evaluation of healthcare, immigration, criminal justice, education, and election policies. Furthermore, I investigate public perceptions about the administration of public policies in the aforementioned thematic areas.
Through this multi-faceted research agenda, my studies have explored various research questions at both the local and national levels, as well as comparatively in the Global South.
