Donia Kamel

I am a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the Brown University Center for Philosophy, Politics, and Economics. I received my PhD in Economics from the Paris School of Economics, where I was supervised by Hillel Rapoport, with Marco Tabellini and Ekaterina Zhuravskaya serving on my thesis committee.

My primary research interests are migration, economic history, political economy, and discrimination. 

My broader research agenda examines identity and diaspora politics, with a focus on the Arab diaspora in the Americas.
