Political Economy
Institutions, political behavior, and their impact on the design and outcomes of public policies.
The Political Economy research area studies how citizens, institutions, and political actors interact, and how these incentives influence the design and outcomes of public policies.
Using both theoretical and empirical approaches, it analyzes political behavior, social preferences, and institutional dynamics, addressing phenomena such as civic participation, social conflict, and electoral processes.
Approach: This research area examines the role of institutions and incentives in real-world contexts, where public policy outcomes do not always align with their intended objectives, contributing to the analysis of complex political and social processes.
Research Topics: Electoral behavior, Political participation, Social conflict and protests, Institutions and governance.
