Cindy Lynn Skach

I teach political and legal theory at the University of Bologna. I was previously a professor of law at King’s College London; the Professor of Comparative Government and Law at the University of Oxford; and prior to that, Associate Professor of Government at Harvard University, and Affiliated Professor of Law at Harvard Law School.

My work has been an attempt to understand the function of law: how rules, particularly constitutions, affect social and political behaviour. To this end, I have conducted research on six continents, and have pubished this research in several languages. I have also served as an advisor to foreign governments and international organisations, including the UN Assistance Mission in Iraq (UNAMI), and the Club of Madrid General Assembly.
