APSR abstract for "Precolonial Elites and Colonial Redistribution of Political Power," by Allison S.

Happy to share my article with Dong Wook Lee and Hillel Soifer on the Modifiable Areal Unit Problem, and what to do about it, published today in Political Analysis. If your research uses aggregated geographic units, this paper can help avoid threats to inference. doi.org/10.1017/pan....
