Welcome!
I am Felix Schönenberger and this is my website.
I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at the USI Lugano, where I also earned my PhD in Economics in February 2024 under the supervision of Prof. Patricia Funk.
I will be on the academic job market 2024/25.
As an applied microeconomist, my primary field of interest is empirical political economy, focusing on electoral competition, accountability, and voter turnout. My research uses quasi-experimental designs to study how strategic considerations of voters and candidates shape political behavior and ultimately public policy.
