Faculty Affiliate Dr. Sarah Bush

Picture
Dr. Sarah Bush is an Assistant Professor of Political Science at Temple University. Prior to starting at Temple, she was a Postdoctoral Fellow in the International Security Program at the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at the Harvard Kennedy School. She received her Ph.D. in Politics from Princeton University in November 2011.
​
Dr. Bush conducts research on international relations, democracy promotion, non-state actors in world politics, gender and human rights policy, and Middle East politics. She is the author of a recent book, The Taming of Democracy Assistance: Why Democracy Promotion Does Not Confront Dictators (Cambridge University Press, 2015), that explores how and why the United States and other developed countries turned to democracy promotion at the end of the Cold War and what the impact of doing so has been.
