ABOUT
Dr. Swamy received his Ph.D. in Political Science from the University of California (Berkeley). His research interests include democracy in developing countries, ethnicity and nationalism, political economy and corruption and state-building, and he has published on all these topics. His dissertation combined these various threads through an examination of populist appeals in Indian politics and he has since extended this argument to Asian politics generally. His special contribution to the study of populism has been the analysis of what he has termed "sandwich coalitions," an alliance of elites with marginalized groups against the middle.

ABOUT
Kate Yusi is a graduate of political science from the University of Hawai'i at Manoa. Having taken her undergraduate degree at the University of Guam in political science, it deeply encouraged and moved her to learn more about political theory and indigenous politics. Particularly, she's interested in learning more about the ways in which ontological and epistemological violence manifest in the Asia-Pacific regions and its peoples. She is interested in learning more about different stories and living in this world differently. Recently, she has been studying ontological differences around the concept of death and dying and what the ways of dying means to a people whose lives have been in perpetual state of injury.
