Biography
Dr. Claire Peacock is a SSHRC Postdoctoral Fellow at 尤物视频 and the University of Laval. Prior to that, she completed her D.Phil. in International Relations at the University of Oxford in 2018.
Claire's research broadly focuses on understanding the rationales behind and the design and outcomes associated with international cooperation, ranging from regulatory cooperation to treaty making. She is currently leading a SSHRC Insight Development Grant-funded research project on when and why states retreat from international environmental agreements and on the design of withdrawal provisions in international environmental agreements. Claire's dissertation research used new data to explore why states include labour and human rights regulation in international trade agreements.
Beyond these projects, Claire is also interested in identifying the most effective uses of informal institutions, such as the G7. Claire was a member of the 2018 Think 7 advisory group convened prior to the 2018 G7 Summit in Charlevoix and co-led the resulting research paper "How Informality Can Address Emerging Issues: Making the Most of the G7," published in Global Policy. She was also a member of the 2019 Think Tank 7 Summit in in Paris, France.
Claire's work often applies data science methods to international relations data and she works in R and Python. She enjoys teaching IR students the fundamentals of working with data and about evidence-based decision making and research.
