Personal profile
Curriculum vitae
I aim interested in the social and political consequences of labour market changes in post-industrial West European countries. I also investigate how social policies can improve or worsen social divides arising form such labour market changes. I am especially interested in workplace automation and the Green Transition.
I also maintain an interest in the implications of inequality in Singapore.
