My recent book, Experimentalist Constitutions: Subnational Innovation in China, India, and the United States (Harvard University Asia Center, Harvard University Press, 2024), explores how subnational experimentalism operates across different political systems, shaped by constitutional structures and partisan or factional dynamics.

Currently, I am working on my second book, Legality by Decree: The Politics of Judicial (In)Dependence in China (under contract with Cambridge University Press), which employs empirical and comparative approaches to analyze how regimes strengthen law and courts while maintaining tight political control over the juridical process.
