Biography

Luis Schiumerini is an Assistant Professor of Political Science at the University of Notre Dame and a faculty fellow at the Kellogg Institute for International Studies. Previously, he was a Postdoctoral Prize Research Fellow in Politics at Nuffield College, University of Oxford, and a Visiting Fellow at the Kellogg Institute for International Studies. Luis is a board member of the Argentine Panel Election Study and a research associate of the Center for the Politics of Development at UC Berkeley.

In his research, Luis uses tools of causal inference to examine how citizens engage democracy in the developing world, with a focus on Latin America. His research has been published or is forthcoming at The Journal of Politics, British Journal of Political Science, Journal of Conflict Resolution, Perspectives on Politics, and at University of Michigan Press. Luis' book project, Incumbency Bias, proposes a novel behavioral theory to account for incumbency advantage and disadvantage in developing democracies, and takes advantage of causal evidence from Latin America.

Luis earned a Ph.D. in Political Science from Yale University and a B.A. in Political Science from Universidad Torcuato Di Tella.
