International Relations

Comparative Politics

I am broadly interested in the intersection of environmental politics and political economy, with a particular focus on energy and climate change policies. My recent work explores how middle powers align or resist alignment with the EU’s environmental norms, particularly under the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM). Additionally, I engage with quantitative research methods to analyze policy outcomes.
