About Paul Huth

Paul Huth is the Director of Research at CIDCM as well as a professor in the Government and Politics Department at the University of Maryland. He specializes in International Relations Theory, International Conflict and Security Affairs, and United States Foreign and Defense Policy. Professor Huth is currently teaching GVPT808b Seminar on Conflict in World Politics. His current research involves a NSF funded project on the onset, escalation, and termination of guerrilla insurgencies since 1980.

Other research interests include the study of territorial disputes as a cause of international conflict and war in the 20th century, the impact of international law on the resolution of international disputes, how political institutions in democratic and non-democratic systems affect the escalation and resolution of international disputes, and the wartime consequences of armed conflict for civilian populations in the 20th century--with a particular focus on the mass killing and forced migration of civilian populations.
