Personal profile
Research
I’m a political scientist working on issues relating to the distribution of our society’s resources and how citizens are represented in democratic politics.
My research, very often collaborative, have been published in journals like American Journal of Political Science, British Journal of Political Science, Comparative Political Studies, European Journal of Political Research, and Socio-Economic Review, among others.
I have received grants from the European Research Council, the Independent Research Fund Denmark, and Aarhus University Research Foundation.
Currently, I am the director of Platform for Inequality Research at Aarhus University (PIREAU) and editor of Socio-Economic Review.
