"From these things therefore it is clear that the city-state is a natural growth, and that man is by nature a political animal, and a man that is by nature and not merely by fortune citiless is either low in the scale of humanity or above it."      

Aristotle, Politics.1.1253a

Welcome to my website. My main field of interest is political economy, with a mix of applied economic theory and experimental economics as secondary. I am particularly interested in the topics of populism and economic advice and their implications for the quality of public debate.
