WENDY SCHILLER

My research focuses on the question of representation in the U.S. Congress. My current work, co-authored with Charles Stewart (MIT) and funded by the National Science Foundation, we examine the political dynamics in the indirect election of U.S. senators in state legislatures (1871-1913). My past publications include Senate agenda setting, public approval, state delegation dynamics, and 19th century Senate behavior. I have also published work on geography, bicameralism, and trade politics.
