Tom Pruchnow
I am an MPhil student in Politics (Comparative Government) under the supervision of Professor Tarik Abou-Chadi. My primary research interest concerns party competition in advanced capitalist democracies. Specifically, I am interested in exploring possible links between social democratic party strategies and the rise of populist right-wing parties.
Before joining the DPIR I graduated from my BSc in Economics at UCL on the Dean’s List, with First Class Honours. During my time at UCL I was an editor for the student-led academic Journal of Economic as well as a regular contributor to the Economic Tribune, a student-led magazine focused on current economic and political affairs.
Outside of academia I gained valuable experience working in the Bundestag office of Thomas Jarzombek and the Berlin studio of Deutschlandradio, Germany’s public radio broadcaster, where I focused on federal German politics as a full contributor to their main programme.
