Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • World War II
  • Law
  • China

His primary areas of study are Development economics, Political economy, Spanish Civil War, Natural resource and Poverty. His Development economics research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Economic recovery, Civil Conflict, Cultural diversity, Development aid and Purchasing power parity. Paul Collier combines subjects such as Competition, Political violence, Politics and Democratization with his study of Political economy.

He has researched Spanish Civil War in several fields, including Developing country, Insurgency, Grievance and Public good. His studies deal with areas such as Corporate governance, Economic rent, Market economy and Monetary economics as well as Natural resource. His studies in Poverty integrate themes in fields like Public economics, Globalization, World economy, Liberian dollar and Face.

His most cited work include:

  • Greed and grievance in civil war (3400 citations)
  • The Bottom Billion: Why the Poorest Countries are Failing and What Can Be Done About It (1829 citations)
  • On economic causes of civil war (1532 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Paul Collier focuses on Development economics, Political economy, Spanish Civil War, Developing country and Catalysis. The concepts of his Development economics study are interwoven with issues in Economic growth, Poverty and Government. The various areas that Paul Collier examines in his Political economy study include Democracy and Politics.

Spanish Civil War is closely attributed to Grievance in his research. His Developing country research incorporates themes from Monetary economics and International economics. His Catalysis study incorporates themes from Inorganic chemistry, Chemical engineering and Methanol.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Development economics (18.18%)
  • Political economy (9.73%)
  • Spanish Civil War (9.09%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Catalysis (8.67%)
  • Zeolite (2.96%)
  • ZSM-5 (2.33%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Catalysis, Zeolite, ZSM-5, Physical chemistry and Chemical engineering. His Catalysis research incorporates elements of Methanol, Nanoparticle, Adsorption, Photochemistry and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. His research integrates issues of Coke and Hydrocarbon in his study of Methanol.

His Photochemistry study frequently links to other fields, such as Inorganic chemistry. As part of one scientific family, Paul Collier deals mainly with the area of ZSM-5, narrowing it down to issues related to the Propene, and often Olefin fiber. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Mechanochemistry are the core of his Chemical engineering study.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Refuge: Transforming a Broken Refugee System (47 citations)
  • The Future of Capitalism: Facing the New Anxieties (29 citations)
  • Is Information Power? Using Mobile Phones and Free Newspapers during an Election in Mozambique (27 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • World War II
  • Law
  • China

Paul Collier mainly focuses on Catalysis, ZSM-5, Zeolite, Politics and Methanol. His research in Catalysis intersects with topics in Nanoparticle, Nanotechnology, Inorganic chemistry, Adsorption and Photochemistry. The Nanotechnology study combines topics in areas such as Reaction coordinate and Product distribution.

His Zeolite research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Molybdenum and Physical chemistry. His study in Politics is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Social psychology, Natural resource, Resource and Revenue. In his research on the topic of Methanol, Analytical chemistry and Gasoline is strongly related with Hydrocarbon.
