Noam Gidron

In his year at CASBS, Noam Gidron will embark on a new research project that explores the role of national identities in shaping our polarized politics. The goal of this project is to theorize and empirically investigate from a comparative perspective how national identities are linked with mass attitudes and commitment to democratic norms, map onto partisan identities, and provide opportunities for political mobilization.

Gidron is an associate professor at the department of political science and the joint Program in Politics, Philosophy and Economics at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. His research interests lie at the intersection of political behavior and political economy, with a substantive focus on populism, polarization and democratic backsliding.
