Stephen Crowley, Associate Professor of Politics, received his B.A. from Hamilton College (1982) and his Ph.D. from the University of Michigan (1993). His research and teaching focuses on Russia and eastern Europe, labor, and globalization. His publications to date have explored the sources and consequences of the weakness of post-communist labor movements. His current research project (which has received funding from ACLS, the NEH, and the Woodrow Wilson Center for International Scholars) examines how the EU expansion to 10 post-communist countries is impacting the European "social model." Due to the weak labor unions in post-communist societies, the EU has, perhaps unwittingly, imported American-style "liberal" labor relations through its expansion. Publications include: Workers after Workers' States: Labor and Politics in Postcommunist Eastern Europe (Rowman & Littlefield, 2001), co-edited with David Os; Hot Coal, Cold Steel: Russian and Ukrainian Workers From the End of the Soviet Union to the Post-Communist Transformations (University of Michigan Press, 1997) [Nominated for the AAASS Marshall Shulman Prize, 1998]. Articles have appeared in World Politics, Eastern European Politics and Societies, Post-Soviet Affairs, Communist and Post-Communist Studies, and Demokratizatsiya, as well as a number of collected volumes. During the academic year 2007-08, Crowley will
be a Research Fellow at the Collegium Budapest/Institute for Advanced
Study http://www.colbud.hu/. In the Fall of 2008 he will be teaching at
the Danenberg Oberlin-in-London Program:
