MOONHAWK KIM joined the faculty of the University of Colorado in 2007 after receiving his Ph.D. from Stanford University. His research and teaching interests include international political economy and international institutions. His current projects examine (1) why the GATT/WTO has evolved over time to increasingly incorporate issue-areas other than trade, such as health and development and (2) why countries incorporate labor and environmental provisions into their trade policies. His research appears in International Studies Quarterly and SAIS Review.
