MPhil European Politics and Society

My research interests include populism, politics in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), the effects of globalisation and quantitative methods.

Before starting my MPhil, I obtained a first class degree in Economics and Politics from the University of Glasgow. During this time, I also studied at the University of Bocconi for a year. My undergraduate thesis argued that Chinese import penetration in CEE has an inverse relationship with populist voting in National Parliamentary Elections in CEE. For this project, I received the John Fowler Award for the Best Undergraduate Dissertation in Politics.
