Bio/Research
Peter Buisseret’s research is focused on political economy theory, and understanding how political institutions—such as legislative process and electoral rules—affect collective decision-making in societies. To date, his work has focused on the relative performance of parliamentary and presidential systems, designing reform strategies when there is uncertainty about who will hold future political power, and inter-governmental negotiations in the shadow of domestic elections. He studies these questions using game-theoretic models that can produce empirical predictions and concrete policy prescriptions. His work has been published in The Journal of Politics and Games and Economic Behavior.
