What Explains Ambitious Climate Policy? Comparing Updated Climate Targets and Covid-19 Recovery Packages and Their Drivers
|
Swiss Network for International Studies (SNIS)
|
We seek to understand the climate ambition of both the nationally determined contributions to the national climate targets and the COVID-19 recovery packages, as well as their coherence. We aim at uncovering the political and economic drivers underlying differences in climate ambition across countries.

|
Swiss National Science Foundation (SNF) - Sinergia
|
Based on the records in the Swiss Commercial Registry on notable business events, published daily since 1883, we produce a unique dataset of 140 years of Swiss corporate history. In St.Gallen, we primarily explore structures of ownership in Swiss firms across sectors and over time – including the public-private aspect, family relationships, cultural factors, and politics.

Reconfiguring EU Democracy Support – Towards a sustained demos in the EU’s Eastern Neighbourhood (REDEMOS)
|
Horizon Europe
|
We study democracy support in the Eastern Partnership (EaP) countries (e.g. Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia). The aim is to develop a new concept for democracy collaboration, in which the conditions of national democracy development are more strongly integrated into the approaches of European democracy promotion. In St.Gallen, we primarily study the images associated with EU democracy promotion prevalent within the European Commission and among its Eastern partners and explore how they shape the policy actions of EU and EaP policy agents.
