I am a professor at the Department of Political Science, the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and the incumbent of the Herbert Samuel Chair in Political Science. I am the Vice Dean for Engagement and Impact in the faculty of social sciences and the Director of The Halbert Centre for Canadian Studies. My research interests include political narratives, political discourse, rhetoric, populism and Israeli politics. In collaboration with Tamir Sheafer, I have established the DeepStory lab, which develops new methods for automated textual analysis using expert annotations of discourse and narrative elements.
