Discussion of Middle Class Poverty Politics: Making Place, Making People Adrienne Hosek, University of California, Davis
Adrienne Hosek is an Assistant Professor in the Department
of Political Science at the University of California, Davis.
Hosek’s research focuses on income inequality and redistributive
politics in the United States, the statistics of causal
inference, and survey experimentation.
In November 2014, the Center hosted the conference “Poverty and
Place,” which focused on the implications of geography and
population density have for poverty. This conference brought
together a unique mix of researchers, policy professionals and
industry leaders to discuss their work studying the people,
geography, and the safety net as it relates to persistent
poverty.
