Elizabeth F. Cohen
Associate Professor of Political Science
Syracuse University
at time of fellowship
2014 to 2015
Cohen will complete a book on immigration reform, assessing the ways in which the U.S. might enfranchise the large number of undocumented immigrants despite deep political disagreements over their presence. She will focus on how policymakers have crafted bipartisan compromises on immigration in the past using a set of political principles based on the immigration probationary period.
