  • TRIP Snap Poll XII January 2020 Introduction
    TRIP Snap Poll XII January 2020 Teaching, Research & International Policy (TRIP) Project Global Research Institute (GRI) https://trip.wm.edu/home Principal Investigators: Susan Peterson, William & Mary Ryan Powers, University of Georgia Michael J. Tierney, William & Mary Data Contacts: Eric Parajon or Emily Jackson Phone: (757) 221-1466 Email: i [email protected] Methodology: We attempted to contact all international relations (IR) scholars in the U.S. We define IR scholars as individuals who are employed at a college or university in a political science department or professional school and who teach or conduct research on issues that cross international borders. Of the 4,752 scholars across the U.S. that we contacted, 971 responded. The resulting response rate is approximately 20.43 percent. The poll was open 10/30/2019-12/14/2019. Our sample is roughly similar to the broader International Relations scholar population in terms of gender, academic rank and university type. Our sample includes a higher percentage of men and a higher percentage of tenured and tenure track faculty than the overall scholar population. Introduction By Emily Jackson, Eric Parajon, Susan Peterson, Ryan Powers, and Michael J. Tierney We are pleased to share the results of the 12th Teaching, Research and International Policy (TRIP) Snap Poll, fielded with the support of the Carnegie Corporation of New York. Our polls provide real-time data in the wake of significant policy proposals, during international crises, and on emerging foreign policy debates. In this poll, we asked questions on the 2020 Presidential Election, President Trump’s foreign policy actions, and impeachment.
