Jana von Stein's broad areas of research and teaching interest are international cooperation and institutions, treaty commitment and compliance, and statistical methods. In a series of articles, Jana examines when/why states make international legal commitments and when/why they comply. Each article covers one area of international cooperation: monetary affairs (the International Monetary Fund Agreement), human rights (child labor and women's wage equality agreements) and environmental affairs (the international climate change regime). More recently, Jana has become particularly interested in the international law and politics of human rights. One paper examines the relationship between democratic transition and human rights treaty compliance. Another (co-authored) project takes a step back, exploring the origins of international human rights agreements. Other work includes a co-authored project on quantitative research on international institutions and a co-authored paper on implementation of post-civil war settlements. Jana also hopes to create a database of international human rights agreements in the near future. Jana von Stein joined the faculty at Michigan in September 2005. She received her B.A. at UC Berkeley and an M.A. at the Institut d'Etudes Politiques in France. Selected Publications
