Professor Kanet’s major teaching and research interests focus on postcommunist Europe, on questions of European and global security, democratization and nationalism, both in a comparative perspective, and on aspects of U.S. foreign and security policy. He also teaches a course entitled the World before European Domination. Prior to coming to Miami in 1997, he taught at the University of Kansas and later at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where he served as Head of the Political Science Department, as Associate Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs, and as Director of International Programs and Studies.
