The Group
Our group’s research and teaching focuses primarily on environmental issues, based on theories and methods of political economy and political science.
We are particularly interested in the following questions:
- How to measure and explain environmental attitudes, policy preferences, and behavior of citizens and consumers across different social, economic, political, and cultural contexts?
- Why do some countries perform better than others in terms of environmental impacts of production and consumption, and sustainable development more generally?
- Why are some countries more cooperative than others in international efforts to solve international environmental problems?
- To what extent do climate change and resource scarcity cause societal problems such as migration, reduced economic growth, and political violence?
