Johnathan Guy

Johnathan Guy is a postdoctoral research scholar in the Political Economy of Climate Lab at Columbia University. His research focuses on the comparative politics of energy and climate change, particularly in resource-rich patronage democracies. His ongoing book project examines variation in the extent to which governments incorporate new forms of renewable energy into their procurement practices, displacing legacy energy sources such as hydropower and fossil fuels. During his postdoc, he will develop a new research agenda investigating the local politics of coal mining transitions in India and Indonesia.
