Gabriele Gratton

I am a Professor at the UNSW Business School, an ARC Future Fellow, a CEPR Research Fellow, and founder and co-director of the UNSW Resilient Democracy Lab.

I am a political economist. My research aims at understanding the determinants of democratic stability and provide insights into what economic, technological, and political factors increase the viability of liberal democratic institutions in the long run. I focus on the role of the state bureaucracy and its relation with politics and citizens, and the management and transmission of information in a context of increasing media pluralism. I wish to contribute to the design of democratic institutions capable to withstand negative economic and social shocks.
