Andy Buschmann

Andy is a PhD candidate in political science, studying social movements and innovation, particularly in emerging market contexts. He researches how organizations (including firms and social movement organizations) endure sudden shocks to their sociopolitical environments (e.g., those induced by war or regime change). Additionally, he examines how such contexts affect innovation performance. His work draws from non-market strategy, organizational theory and political economy, as well as entrepreneurship and innovation literature, and he uses mixed-methods approaches to study these questions.
