Aimee A. Tannehill
Welcome! I am a Ph.D. candidate in the department of Political Science at the University of California, Davis. I received my bachelors degree in Spanish with a minor in Spanish from UC Davis. My dissertation examines the relationship between civil war and international conflict. It addresses the conditions under civil wars lead to international conflict, as well as the conditions under which international conflict leads to the outbreak of civil war. I received a dissertation improvement grant from the Institute of Governmental Affairs, which aided me in the creation of an original data set on the religious affiliation of political leaders and civil war opposition groups during the post-WWII period.
My research and teaching interests are in the areas of international relations and political methodology, with emphasis on international conflict and the international aspects of civil wars.
I am interested in teaching a broad array of courses, such as International Relations, Ethnic and Religious Politics, American Foreign Policy, National Security Policy, quantitative methods, and research methods. I have independently taught classes on International Relations and research methods.
