"Iain Johnston is unquestionably the leading specialist to combine enormous expertise on Chinese foreign relations with a superb knowledge of International Relations theory," Government Department Chair Roderick MacFarquhar wrote in an e-mail message.
Perry, who is also director of the Fairbank Center for East Asian Research, said she believes Johnston is "quite unusual, because there are very few theorists of Chinese international relations who also have a strong grounding in the methods of social science."
Johnston received his bachelor's degree in international relations and history from the University of Toronto in 1981, his master's in East Asian studies from Harvard in 1985, and his doctorate in political science from the University of Michigan in 1993.
He was appointed to an associate professorship at Harvard in 1996 and has taught several courses here on Chinese foreign policy, nuclear learning and international relations.
Johnston received a MacArthur Fellowship in international peace and security in 1991 and is a member of the National Committee on US-China Relations, among other committees.
