Julian E. Gerez

Welcome to my website! Thanks for stopping by. I am a Ph.D. candidate in political science at Columbia University. My research focuses on comparative politics in democracies, where I study the political economy of criminal justice and its enforcement. I have regional expertise on Latin America.

My dissertation project examines the causes and consequences of supply-side drug control in Colombia and is supported by the APSA/NSF Doctoral Dissertation Research Improvement Grant.

You can learn more about me here and click here to view my CV. My research projects are listed on this page. My work is published in World Politics and State Politics & Policy Quarterly, among other journals.

On this site, I also host a blog, mostly about solving math puzzles and riddles.
