Rethinking Democracy: Comparative Lessons for America’s Electoral Future

American democracy is facing serious headwinds. UCSB Associate Professor of Political Science Dr. Heather Stoll will share her insights on the institutional framework of American democracy, with a particular focus on the rules governing elections, and place it in a comparative context.

Prior to joining the UCSB faculty in 2005, Stoll spent a year as a research fellow at the Center for Basic Research in the Social Sciences at Harvard University. She also has a M.S. in statistics from Stanford University and an MPhil in politics from the University of Oxford.

This free event is a contemporary issues community forum co-sponsored by the League of Women Voters of Santa Barbara, and the Unitarian Society of Santa Barbara.
