Sara M. Roy (born 1955[1]) is an American political economist and scholar. She is a Research Associate at the Center for Middle Eastern Studies at Harvard University.
Roy's research and over 100 publications focus on the economy of Gaza and more recently on Hamas.[2] Reviewing her 2007 Failing Peace: Gaza and the Palestinian-Israeli Conflict, Bruce Lawrence writes that "Roy is the leading researcher and most widely respected academic authority on Gaza today," and she considers the Gaza Strip her second home.[3] She has also studied Palestinian politics and the broader Israeli–Palestinian conflict.
