Nouveau visage à la Chaire Hoover │Hong Do

Hong Do holds a PhD in Political Science (Political Theory Track) from Central European University, an MSc in Politics, Economics, and Philosophy from the University of Hamburg, and a BA in International Relations from the Diplomatic Academy of Vietnam.

Her research explores the ideal of a global assembly as a form of democratic innovation at the transnational level. Her PhD dissertation developed a participatory theory of international legitimacy that seeks to strengthen the political voice of individuals living in non-democratic countries. Building on this work, her current book project extends this inquiry to a broader range of politically underrepresented groups, including refugees, people residing in unrecognized territories and stateless populations. Her research has been published in Critical Review of International Social and Political Philosophy and Moral Philosophy and Politics.
