About Me

Hi! My name is Xing Chen (陈醒). I am an assistant professor at School of International Relations and Public Affairs at Fudan University. I obtained my PhD in Environmental Economics and bachelor degree in Environmental Science from Peking University. My advisor was Professor Jintao Xu from National School of Development. Additionally, I spent a year as a visiting scholar at UC Berkeley, supervised by the esteemed environmental economist, Peter Berck.

My experience at Shanghai ignited my interest in politics and diverted me from my initial academic path. Through diligent self-study, I now study Public Opinion, Political Psychology, and Environmental Politics. Leveraging observations from the real world, I provide evidence-based insights into how information, trauma, and cultural norms shape political trust and decision-making. My research connects public policy/administration, political science, and economics, with work published in Governance, Public Performance&Management Review. If you want to collaborate, feel free to email me.
