Michael Rosenblum

I am an Assistant Professor in the Management & Organization Department at the University of Notre Dame's Mendoza College of Business. After earning my Ph.D from the Management and Organizations group at UC Berkeley’s Haas School of Business, I held a position as a Postdoctoral Researcher at New York University’s Stern School of Business.

I have developed two distinct, but inherently interconnected streams of research: one focuses on perceptions of inequality and the second focuses on political discourse. As it is the domain of politics through which societal inequalities are created and through which they can be remedied, these fields of study naturally overlap, reinforce one another, and offer complimentary insights. In one line of research, I investigate how different forms of inequality (along lines of gender, race, and socioeconomic status) impact interpersonal judgments. In my other line of research, I study the bi-directional relation between political discourse (e.g., politically correct language) and impression formation. That is, I study how political discourse shapes impressions of others and how our impressions shape the way in which we communicate our beliefs.
