I am an assistant professor for economic and social history at the University of Münster. You can find my chair's website here: https://www.wiwi.uni-muenster.de/wisoge/de
My research fields are economic history, political economy, and urban/regional economics. Most of my research asks how political decision-making and economic factors affect outcomes with respect to inequality, public finance, or the organisation of cities.
My mostly empirical research focuses on economic change in both, the short-run and long-run.
