David Glick joined the department and Boston University in 2011. He received his Ph.D. in the Department of Politics at Princeton University and was previously a visiting fellow at the Rockefeller Center for Public Policy at Dartmouth College.  His research and teaching interests sit at the intersection of judicial politics, law and society, decision making, and public policy.  His dissertation and current work focus on how those affected by complicated laws and regulations learn from others to figure out how to comply. He is also studying issues of learning from others and policy diffusion more broadly.  His work draws on a mix of archival evidence, personal interviews, formal theory, statistical analysis and laboratory experiments.  He has previously published ”Conditional Strategic Retreat: The Court’s Concession in the 1934 Gold Clause Cases” in the Journal of Politics.
