I research the comparative politics of the welfare state in a broad sense. I am interested in how parties, governments, interest groups, institutions, and policy feedback shape welfare state reform. Much of my published work has focused on right-wing parties and family policies like childcare and parental leave in Western Europe. In my current research, I also study how family policies affect society, the politics of labour market reform, Mediterranean party systems, and broader transformations in contemporary political economy.
