I am an Assistant Professor and the Deputy Head of the Department of International Relations at the Institute of Political Studies at Charles University, Prague. My research concentrates on political conflicts between states, especially great powers, and the prospects of cooperation in international organizations and beyond. I am the principal investigator of project GLOWIN, Global Flows of Political Information (2021–2024) and a work package lead in a Horizon Europe project ENSURED (2023–2026).
My prime scholarly focus in recent years has been on the information the public in states around the world receives through news media about foreign affairs and global conflicts. In GLOWIN, we study this fascinating area with the use of state-of-the-art natural language processing tools, including large language models and generative AI, and based on unique data we collect to map the content of news media worldwide.
The results of my research have been published in leading scholarly journals in the field of International Relations, including International Studies Quarterly (2021), The Review of International Organizations (2024, 2021, 2017), New Political Economy (2018), Journal of European Public Policy (2024), and others. I am the author of Negotiations in the World Trade Organization: Design and Performance (2020, Routledge).
