Faculty Spotlight: Hope M. Harrison
Hope M. Harrison is Professor of History and International Affairs at the George Washington University. In Spring 2021, Professor Harrison received the Michael E. Brown Research Prize. Named after the Elliott School’s former dean, the prize recognizes a faculty member each year whose research contributes to scholarly and policy-relevant understanding of important global issues.
"The Institute for International Economic Policy is very proud of its relatively strong presence of women faculty and the outstanding work each one is doing at the frontiers of research, teaching, and policy. Their work and contributions have significantly broadened the range of issues the institute addresses and expanded its ability to examine issues from new and innovative perspectives."
