Craig Borowiak received a B.A. in Philosophy from Carleton College and a Ph. D in Political Science from Duke University. He joined the Haverford political science faculty in fall 2004. Trained in political philosophy and political economy, his teaching and research interests focus on democratic theory, the global political economy, postcolonial studies, global civil society, normative approaches to global governance, and the history of political economic thought.

Craig’s principal research has focused on how the voices of the least advantaged are frequently marginalized within the discourses surrounding globalization and the global political economy. He is currently working on a book manuscript tentatively titled “Critical Accountability: markets, citizenship and global governance” in which he explores different historical and theoretical approaches to the question of democratic accountability as they might pertain to current global governance arrangements. He is paying particular attention to the role of grassroots civil society initiatives in holding power to account. In addition to this project, he has presented and published articles on international intellectual property regimes and the struggle of developing world farmers to retain control of seeds, and on ecofeminism and agrarian nationalism in India.
