Professor of Economics | Political Economy of Conflict & Resilience | Public Policy | Willem F. Duisenberg Fellow at Netherlands Institute for Advanced Study (NIAS) | Visiting Professor at LSE (London School of Economics and Political Science)
She is a Professor of Economics and interdisciplinary scholar with a research focus on the political economy of conflict, institutional resilience, and macroeconomic policy in fragile and transitional states. Her work engages with how states respond―economically and institutionally―to war, geopolitical disruption, and systemic risk.
Currently, she holds the Willem F. Duisenberg Fellowship at the NIAS and serves as a Visiting Professor at the Centre for Macroeconomics, London School of Economics. Her research explores wartime fiscal and monetary policy, the economics of inequality, green transition, and strategic vulnerabilities in conflict-affected economies with comparative insights for international policy communities.
