Agnes Yu

Dr. Agnes Yu is an LSE Fellow (Global Politics) in the Department of Government at the London School of Economics and Political Science. Her research focuses on how individuals conceptualize linkages between international and domestic politics through protest, with comparative studies in the US, Poland, Chile, and Japan. She employs surveys, interviews, and participatory fieldwork to explore protest participation dynamics and political agency in global contexts. Additionally, she investigates observational and ethical challenges in conflict data measurement, particularly the role of emotions like 'fear' as indicators of hard-to-observe phenomena.

Her PhD in International Relations was conducted at LSE under Dr. Milli Lake and Prof. Phillip Ayoub (UCL), with prior degrees from the University of Oxford (MPhil) and the University of Toronto (Honours BA in International Relations and Ethics, Society & Law). Her expertise includes protest dynamics, dataset construction, and social network analysis.
