Institutional quality, state intervention, and democratic accountability in Europe
Nicholas Charron is professor of political science and a research fellow at the Quality of Government Institute at the University of Gothenburg. Previously, he was an associate professor at the Copenhagen Business School for two years, and a full-time post-doctoral fellow at the University of Memphis. Charron is the author and co-creator of the European Quality of Government Index (EQI). His research has mainly focused on the causes and consequences of state capacity and corruption, multi-level governance within the EU, public opinion, and electoral behavior.
At the Minda de Gunzburg Center for European Studies (CES), Charron will work on several ongoing research projects focused on issues concerning corruption, quality of government, gender equality, and democratic accountability in European regions and countries.
