My name is Nasir Almasri. I’m a Predoctoral Fellow in the Middle East Initiative at Harvard Kennedy School and a PhD candidate in Political Science at MIT. I am also a Graduate Fellow at the Middle East Institute in Washington, D.C.

My research sits at the intersection of comparative politics, international relations, and security studies. I engage questions about social movements, authoritarianism, organizational dynamics, and regional power competition. I also specialize in the politics of the Middle East and North Africa.
