Forschungsinteressen

I am Professor of the Economics of Innovation, Trade and Development at RWTH Aachen University, Germany, and head of its research section ITD - Innovation, Trade and Development. I am also a Adjunct Professor at the University of Coimbra, Portugal.

My research and teaching is focused on the economics of technological innovation, trade and planetary habitability.

The central focus of my current work is to highlight the unsustainable nature of the growth-based economic system, manifested in a "Guns, Oil and Oligarch" nexus.

I joined IZA as a Research Fellow in January 2013.

I have authored 60 IZA Discussion Papers, with 441,354 total downloads by September 2025.

IZA personal ranking position: 22 among a total of 13,669 IZA DP authors.
