Is there a more Munich way to end the year than heading to a beergarden for Bavarian curling? 🥌❄️

Cold air, warm drinks, friendly competition, and plenty of laughs accompanied the winter event of the teams Seelkopf, Rittberger & Zangl.

Happy holidays and all the best for 2026!

As #Latvia 🇱🇻 will soon represent the #EU 🇪🇺 in the #UNSC 🇺🇳, I had the pleasure to discuss with @latvijasradio.bsky.social about the current challenges to #multilateralism posed by the disengagement of the great powers #US 🇺🇸, #China 🇨🇳 and #Russia 🇷🇺:

What can we learn from Trump 1.0 for Trump 2.0 🇺🇸 and the future of the liberal international order #LIO? 🌐

In a recent study in @iajournal.bsky.social, I assessed #Trump 1.0’s attacks against int’ institutions and their consequences: doi.org/10.1093/ia/i...

I am deeply honored to have received the #DeutscherStudienpreis by Julia Kloeckner @bundestag.de🏆🇩🇪

This PhD award by the #KoerberStiftung values rigorous, societally relevant research – which is exactly what I strive for in my work @lmumuenchen.bsky.social #LMU & @eui-eu.bsky.social #EUI!

GlobalPolitics@LMU @globalpoliticslmu.bsky.social · 20d

These findings highlight how new institutions like the #AIIB adapt selectively to the existing regime complex, balancing #performance and #legitimacy.

GlobalPolitics@LMU @globalpoliticslmu.bsky.social · 20d

AIIB–#WorldBank cooperation is less common in countries with existing Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) ties to China.

AIIB–#ADB cooperation increases with corruption levels and is more prevalent in BRI-affiliated countries.

GlobalPolitics@LMU @globalpoliticslmu.bsky.social · 20d

Drawing on original data for 277 Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (#AIIB) projects from 2016–2023, they show that cooperation is extensive but highly context-dependent. When and where does the AIIB cooperate?

Does #Trump 2.0 mean the decline of global governance and the resurgence of traditional great-power politics?

The death of global governance is not inevitable but will depend on how major powers respond, argue @benjaminfaude.bsky.social and I in a recent article:

The first #G20 summit in Africa was overshadowed by #US absence. What does this tell us about this institution – and int' politics more generally in the age of Trumpism?

I had the pleasure to share my views about these questions with Romain Chanson for @jeuneafrique.com

Is the #US 🇺🇸 disengagement from the #LIO a Trump-specific or a more general phenomenon?

Treating #Trump as a mere aberration risks overlooking structural forces that are driving the US away from the LIO, argue Leonard Schütte (@belfercenter.bsky.social) and I in #ZFAS:

Since I started working in academia, it has been my ambition to conduct rigorous research on topics that matter. This is why I am particularly thrilled about the #DeutscherStudienpreis of the #Körber-Stiftung, that puts emphasis on the societal relevance next to the excellency of PhD theses.
