• +۴ مورد دیگر

Elsa Y. Chen is Professor and Chair of the Political Science Department at Santa Clara University, where she teaches and conducts research on criminal justice policy, sentencing reform, and prisoner reintegration. Research Interests Professor Chen’s scholarship centers on the intersection of law, politics, and public policy, with particular attention to criminal sentencing, racial/ethnic disparities, and the implementation of reform legislation such as California’s Three-Strikes Law and Proposition 36. Her recent work explores innovative measures of reentry success beyond simple recidivism, the role of courtroom workgroups in shaping sentencing outcomes, and the lived experiences of individuals seeking record clearance. Publication Trends Across more than three dozen publications from 1998 to 2025, Professor Chen has consistently examined how structural and procedural factors in the criminal legal system affect outcomes for defendants and returning citizens. Her 2020 edited volume Beyond Recidivism epitomizes this trajectory, offering new conceptual frameworks and methodological tools for evaluating reentry programs. Recent articles (2024–2025) extend this agenda with mixed-methods studies on online recruitment of justice-impacted interviewees and coalition-building behind automatic expungement laws. Advising & Grants No specific funded grants or named student advisees appear in the provided text; further details may be accessible via SCU’s internal systems. Laboratory & Research Teams No dedicated research lab is mentioned; however, as Department Chair, Professor Chen likely oversees collaborative projects within the Political Science Department and across the university’s interdisciplinary centers focusing on justice and policy studies.
