Principal Investigator
My main research interest concerns the productivity of conflicts. I am particularly interested in understanding how conflict, including violent conflict, affects inter- and transnational orders. Political violence has not only spurred the development of the modern nation state on the European continent but it has equally affected the design of international institutions and values. Think of the creation of the United Nations in response to World War II. I am interested in when and how this happens.
