Tim Büthe: Research

I am interested in how institutions empower and constrain political actors, why institutions persist or change, and how domestic and international institutions interact.  I have pursued these overarching research interests in several distinct projects, each of which focuses on a specific issue in the international political economy.  The venn diagram below situates my current and completed research projects relative to three broad themes: global private politics, delegation of regulatory authority, and international institutions.
