Ben Noble

I am an Associate Professor in Russian Politics at University College London in the School of Slavonic and East European Studies.

I am also currently an Associate Fellow at Chatham House (the Royal Institute of International Affairs) in the Russia and Eurasia Programme, and a National Committee member of the British Association for Slavonic and East European Studies.

I was previously the Herbert Nicholas Junior Research Fellow in Politics at New College, University of Oxford, and a Senior Research Fellow at the Higher School of Economics, Moscow, in the Laboratory for Regional Political Studies;

I'm interested in what legislatures do in authoritarian regimes. Specifically, my current research examines how executive actors with different policy preferences use legislative institutions to reconcile conflicts in the policy-making process. I focus on Russia and other states of the former Soviet Union.
