Hello and welcome!

Oliver B. Wach

I am a PhD Candidate and Research Fellow at Freie Universität Berlin.

My research interests include comparative economics, economic history and political economy. I focus on the influence of historical events and institutions on economic development and the transformation of social structures in Poland and other countries in the 20th and 21st centuries. This includes socialist state-building policies such as collectivization and land reform, political repression, and migration.
