Biography
Muravchik received an undergraduate degree from City College of New York, and a Ph.D in international relations from Georgetown University.
Muravchik was National Chairman of the Young People's Socialist League from 1968 to 1973 during which time he pursued perhaps the most right-wing policy in the history of that organization. He has been an adjunct professor at the Institute of World Politics since 1992. He served on the Maryland State Advisory Committee of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights from 1985 to 1997 and was a member of the Commission on Broadcasting to the People's Republic of China in 1992. Additionally, he has been an adjunct scholar at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy since 1986 and was executive director of the Coalition for a Democratic Majority from 1977 to 1979. He is an editorial board member of World Affairs (journal) and Journal of Democracy.
Muravchik is a resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, where he researches Middle East politics, democracy, neoconservatism and the history of socialism. He is also a patron of the Henry Jackson Society, a British think tank based in Cambridge.
In 2006, he called for the bombing of Iran.
