Jonathan Holbrook is a student of Russian and East European Studies at Yale University. He is especially interested in the interaction of law and development. He is currently studying corruption in the area of government contracts, particularly the various factors influencing the degree to which it is accepted and what societal and cultural factors most significantly contribute to defining the point at which the relevant elements of society consider it unacceptable. In addition to his academic interests, he served as a law clerk to the Senior Circuit Court Judge in his home county. His work at the Institute was funded by a grant from Yale International Security Studies.
