PHD STUDENT – POLITICAL SCIENCE & INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
Welcome! I am Gabriela, a third-year PhD candidate in Political Science at the University of Georgia’s 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’s in European Studies (M.E.S.) from the University of Vienna, and a BA (with distinction) in Hungarian Studies from the University of Vienna.
At the University of Georgia, I am a recipient of UGA’s prestigious Graduate School Doctoral Fellow Award as well as an additional annual award from the Dean’s Scholarship Fund.
My research agenda focuses on the far right, political behaviour, and democratic erosion in Europe. More specifically, my work explores the relationship between the far right and democracy, as well as the role of gender in far-right politics. I am also interested in the intersection of far-right politics and political psychology.
For regular updates on my work and activities, you can find me on LinkedIn and BlueSky.
