Stephen B. Kaplan, PhD, is an associate professor of political science and international affairs at George Washington University's Elliott School of International Affairs. He specializes in the political economy of global finance and development, the politics of macroeconomic policy-making, Chinese foreign economic policy, and Latin American politics.
With a focus on the frontiers of international and comparative political economy, Dr. Kaplan's research and teaching interests explore the implications of developing countries borrowing from China instead of Western markets and multilaterals. He examines the costs and benefits of China's global financing, the potential replication of China's state-led capitalism by other rising or middle-income powers, and the implications of debt and dependency. His work has been recognized and reviewed in prestigious academic journals and media outlets.
