One of the most well-attended PhD defences in recent memory at the EUI, according to an experienced colleague. Max produced an excellent dissertation and demonstrates a strong potential for a distinguished academic career. Political science departments should take note.

Last week, after four incredible years, I defended my dissertation and was awarded a PhD in Political Science from the @eui-eu.bsky.social. It was a really special moment surrounded by family and friends, both old and new. Thank you to everyone who came to the defense and supported me along the way.
