Further research projects

Not everything gets funding, but I want to work on it nevertheless;)

Thus, I am also working on the following topics:

  • Competition in Academia and its social and epistemological implications
  • The costs of competition in our academic system
  • The state of plurality in economics
  • The epistemological challenges of pluralism and how to address them
  • The relationship between pluralism and decoloniality, especially in times of socio-economic polarization
  • How to determine the realisticness of economic models
