PHD STUDENT – POLITICAL SCIENCE & INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
Welcome! I am Gabriela, a first-year political science PhD Student at the University of Georgia, School of Public and International Affairs, focusing on Comparative Politics and Methodology. I hold an MSc in Political Science from the University of Amsterdam, a Master in European Studies (M.E.S.) from the University of Vienna, and a BA (with distinction) in Hungarian Studies from the University of Vienna.
I am also a recipient of the University of Georgia’s Graduate School Doctoral Fellow Award and an additional annual award from the Dean’s Scholarship Fund.
My research focuses on the far right, political behaviour, democracy and democratic erosion as well as European politics more broadly. I am also interested in the intersection of far-right politics and political psychology. My primary regional focus is Europe, particularly Central and Eastern Europe.
