Comparative Politics. Democracy Research.

Welcome to my website! I am a Ph.D. student in Political Science and Research Associate at the Unit of Political Theory and Public Policy at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz.

My research interests cluster around topics related to (comparative) democracy research on the macro-level. In particular, I am interested in why and how democracies decline, what makes democracies more or less resilient in the face of contemporary stressors, and what we can learn from this for sustainable democratic (re-)institutionalization.
