Benjamin Taylor is an Associate Professor of Political Science at Kennesaw State University, affiliated with the School of Government & International Affairs. His research focuses on American politics, particularly political behavior, campaigns and elections, public opinion, media politics, and political communication. He teaches courses in these areas and actively engages in public-facing scholarship.
Key research interests include analyzing how media influences political attitudes, the role of technology (e.g., AI chatbots) in political learning, and the structural implications of runoff election systems on governance costs. His work bridges empirical analysis with practical policy insights, often addressing contemporary issues like pandemic media dynamics and voter satisfaction with democratic systems.
Dr. Taylor’s publications span academic journals and reviews, with a strong emphasis on methodological innovation (e.g., using Google Books Ngrams) and interdisciplinary approaches. His recent work highlights trends in election administration costs, the educative role of extreme media, and the intersection of cultural products (films) with political psychology.
Though no specific grants or advising roles are detailed, his scholarship consistently emphasizes civic engagement and the evolving relationship between media, technology, and democratic processes. He contributes to both scholarly discourse and public understanding of political systems through accessible platforms like his faculty website and ORCiD profile.
