Michael Doyle is a renowned scholar of global constitutionalism, international affairs, and democratic peace theory. The author of a dozen books, he specializes in international relations theory, international security, international organizations, and the global regime for migration.
In 2015, Doyle was named a University Professor, Columbia’s highest academic rank. He teaches at Columbia in the Law School, School of International Public Affairs, and the Department of Political Science. His observation that liberal democracies do not go to war has stimulated an extensive research program and provoked a wide policy debate. His most recent books are The Question of Intervention: John Stuart Mill and the Responsibility to Protect (Yale, 2015) and Liberal Peace: Selected Essays (Routledge, 2011). The latter collection includes his 1986 essay “Liberalism and World Politics,” the 16th-most-cited article in the first century of the American Political Science Review.
