Prior to UoI, he was an America in the World Consortium (AWC) Postdoctoral Fellow at Duke University, a visiting scholar in the Institute for Security and Conflict Studies at George Washington University, and a research fellow affiliated with the National Security Policy Center in the Frank Batten School of Leadership and Public Policy at the University of Virginia. He studies international security and foreign policy.

'Potter and Wang's important new book taps a broader literature about domestic political violence and authoritarianism to enrich our understanding of China's policies for dealing with resentment and unrest among the Uyghur Muslims in Xinjiang. Although they detail and explain variation in Beijing's policies since 1949, ultimately they emphasize the clear trend in recent years toward ever harsher repression and tighter social controls. Their book also highlights new international dangers that China faces as its vast array of Belt and Road projects in Central Asia and beyond creates opportunities for political violence against Chinese targets motivated by anger about Beijing's policies towards Xinjiang's Muslims.' Avery Goldstein, David M. Knott Professor of Global Politics and International Relations, University of Pennsylvania
