Charlotte Kuberka

I am a PhD candidate in Political Behavior at the Department of Government at LSE. My supervisors are Melissa Sands, Sara Hobolt and Florian Foos.

In my thesis, I examine how place shapes political behavior, and how the communities individuals live in and the social networks they maintain across geographic space influence their political outlook and policy preferences, using micro-level geospatial and network data.
