John Cruzatti Constantine

John Cruzatti Constantine is an Assistant Professor in Development Economics at the International Institute of Social Studies (ISS), part of Erasmus University Rotterdam. He is affiliated with the Academic Staff Unit and focuses on high-resolution geo-spatial analysis to study the socio-economic impacts of global policies, political behaviors, and disasters.

His research interests lie at the intersection of development economics and spatial data science. He investigates how foreign aid, trade agreements, political favoritism, and natural disasters affect local-level development outcomes such as economic productivity, public health, and social beliefs. His methodological approach emphasizes fine-grained geographic data to uncover nuanced policy impacts.

While no specific publications are listed in the current text, his work appears to center on empirical development studies with strong policy implications, particularly in the context of Chinese aid and political economy dynamics.
