Profile

I studied philosophy, history, and political economy at Heidelberg University and the London School of Economics, and am now deepening my research focus on Eastern Central Europe with a doctorate in the Emmy-Noether Group “Managing Development.”
My research project focuses on the evolution, circulation, and adaptation of management knowledge in the socialist People's Republic of Poland between 1956 and 1981.

Research areas:

• East Central European history
• Comparative political economy
• History of knowledge
