How has writing this book influenced your overall research agenda? What do you see as the core themes motivating your research going forward?

Since the book is a case study of three groups in one country, originally motivated by large-N cross-national analyses, it was natural for me to get back to a large-N analysis again, this time to focus on how national law intersects with international law. So I teamed up with my collaborator in Germany to launch a new project on how constitutional provisions on minority rights changed over time and impacted minority rights practices. This project involves coding of all the national constitutions that ever existed, and we are finally done with coding and working on the analyses. To complement the cross-national quantitative analyses, we are also putting together an edited volume that assembled experts of various country cases to write about the evolution of minority rights jurisprudence and its on-the-ground impact in their focal countries. This one-two punch of large-N quantitative analysis and focused qualitative case studies is very informative to me, and I will continue to employ this mixed- methods approach in my future projects.
