Qiang Guo

In Shanghai, Guo is going to finish his dissertation on the history of Chinese political elites and the development of state capacity. Several important scholars who share the same research interests are working in academic institutions in the Shanghai region, and so the fellowship will present him with opportunities to exchange ideas with scholars in his field. He will also be conducting archival research to collect historical data needed for his dissertation. As these are in the Shanghai area, he is looking forward to collecting  the data that required to complete this research.
