Daniel S. Nagin
Carnegie Mellon University
Visiting Scholar
2011 to 2012
Nagin will write a book in collaboration with Steven Durlauf, University of Wisconsin, that describes strategies for reforming the criminal justice system in ways that reduce incarceration rates and crime simultaneously. They argue that both imprisonment and crime can be reduced by implementing policies that reallocate resources from incarceration to policing, parole, and probation systems.
Patrick Simon
National Institute for Demographic Studies
Visiting Scholar
2010 to 2011
Simon will write a book comparing integration of immigrants in France and the United States. He will specifically discuss the role of racial discrimination against first- and second-generation immigrants in both countries. The comparative framework will allow for an assessment of how different social policies might influence racial and ethnic identification.
