I am a researcher and author on failing representation, the relation of citizens and politics, party politics and inequality with a focus on Europe; France and Germany in particular.
I am currently Assistant Professor of Comparative Politics at the American University of Paris. I am also an Associate Researcher at Sciences Po Paris and at the Wissenschaftszentrum Berlin (WZB, Center for Civil Society Research). Previously, I worked as a Lecturer at Freie Universität Berlin (Department of Social and Political Science). I hold a PhD from Sciences Po Paris. While completing my PhD, I was awarded a Max Weber Fellowship at the European University Institute (EUI) in Florence and was an OxPo Fellow at the University of Oxford, Nuffield College & Department of Politics and International Relations. I was also chercheuse invitée at the Paris School of Economics (invited by Jean-François Laslier and Thomas Piketty). I have an interdisciplinary background, holding degrees in Political Science, Economics and Empirical Social and Political Analysis. My current research includes three research clusters: (1) Failing representation in Europe - citizens' perspective (2) The conflict on human values in Europe (3) Collaborative projects with Political Scientists (e.g. Sciences Po, Freie Universität Berlin/WZB, University of Stockholm/Copenhagen) and Economists (e.g. Paris School of Economics/Ecole Normale Supérieure Paris), member of the Democracy Forum (European University Institute, Florence) Most recent publications: Dageförde, Mirjam (2024): Do they get close?
