What was the name of the employer Lisa Hill (political scientist) work for from 1989 to 1995?
Lisa Hill ( political scientist ) Lisa Hill is Professor of Politics at the University of Adelaide , Australia . She has previously held positions at the University of Sydney and the Australian National University . Hills research interests include electoral law , Australian politics , history of political thought , social , political and economic thought of the Scottish Enlightenment , the development and pre-history of liberalism , classical political economy , political corruption , and classical Stoicism . She is particularly known for her work in support of compulsory voting . She was elected a Fellow of the Academy of the Social Sciences in Australia in 2011 . Political work . Hill is an advocate for compulsory voting , pointing out that in Australia ( where voting is compulsory ) turnout has remained steady at about 95 per cent , whilst in voluntary voting systems around the world turnout has been on the decline . She has estimated that were Australia to introduce voluntary voting , turnout would decline to 60 per cent . She holds that the decline in turnout is most pronounced among younger , poorer and more marginalised voters , a factor that explains why there is more wealth inequality within voluntary systems : politicians have less incentive to cater to the needs of more marginalised voters , who are less likely to vote in voluntary systems . Her expertise in the area has also been recognised by the Australian and British Electoral Commissions , as well as in the popular media , with her ideas being explored in such publications as Slate and the International Business Times . She recently co-authored Compulsory Voting : For and Against ( Cambridge University Press ) with political philosopher Jason Brennan , who took the opposing side of the debate . The book has been called the best and most thorough recent contribution to the literature on this subject by Professor Ilya Somin of George Mason University School of Law . Hills current work focuses on challenging proponents of epistemic democracy , such as Brennan , who advocate for a political system in which an educated elite is given more political power . Such proponents argue that such recent , arguably undesirable , election outcomes such as the election of Donald Trump and Brexit would have been prevented under an epistocracy ; Hill suggests that this is empirically incorrect , and argues that we should instead be focused on how to deepen and expand the franchise in order to improve our democracies . Hill is also a founding member and current chair of the research committee of the Centre for Public Integrity , an independent think tank dedicated to preventing corruption , protecting the integrity of our accountability institutions , and eliminating undue influence of money in politics in Australia . Personal life . Hill paints for fun , and was the illustrator of the cover of Elleke Boehmers 2005 book Colonial and Postcolonial Literature . Select publications .
