PHD Candidate, Economics

he/him/his

Xuan Li is a Ph.D. student in Economics. He is interested in both Political Economics and Labor Economics. His research centers on hate crimes, which are likely to have a broader and more devastating ripple effect on whole communities as they not only target the immediate victim alone but also victimize others who share the same characteristics or identities. Working with several local government agencies in Los Angeles, Xuan’s project aims to understand the impact of hate crimes on local communities and how these communities respond to such incidents..
