Introduction
I am a political scientist interested in electoral behavior and comparative politics, with a focus on the impact of historical legacies on electoral turnout and the reasons behind the vote for European populist parties. In my research, I mainly use comparative public opinion survey data and quantitative methods. I have been involved in H2020 MICADO and H2020 RePast research projects.

The recent success of right-wing populist parties (RPPs) in Europe has given rise to different explanations. Economic factors have proven to be significant mainly at the aggregate level. As for the individual level, it has been argued that the so-called ‘losers of globalization’ – the less educated and less skilled, profiles with higher job insecur...
Focusing on six populist radical right parties from four Central and Eastern European countries, we show that the factors that account for the vote for these parties in Western Europe do not travel well to Central and Eastern Europe. Euroscepticism boosts populist radical right party voting almost without exception, while nativism, regarded as the...
During the long nineteenth century, Poland was divided among the Russian, Habsburg, and Prussian empires. The partition produced regional diversity in political culture and in institutional and economic development. We examine how the cultural legacies of the empires have influenced the propensity of Poles to cast a ballot in parliamentary election...

This article focuses on the long-term relationship between the number of political parties and the propensity to turn out in 96 parliamentary elections between 1996 and 2016 of nearly 100,000 individuals in 31 countries. Although intuitively more opti...
The traditional Spanish imperfect bipartisanship and the alternation in power that emerged in the early 80s between the center-left PSOE and the conservative PP have shifted towards a multiparty system after the emergence of three new parties. At first, as a result of the economic and political representation crises, Podemos (We Can) emerged at the...

This article assesses the impact of individual-level experiences of political socialisation under communist rule on the propensity to vote in elections after 1989 in eight Central and Eastern European countries. Using CSES and CEU data, it sheds light on the heterogeneity of the effects of communist socialisation on electoral turnout, showing how t...
This article deepens the analysis of the effects of immigration on the vote for Populist Radical Right Parties in Europe, focusing on education levels of both natives and immigrants. By analysing the immigrant population in 101 regions from 11 European countries, we show that in contexts with a large immigrant presence, the low-educated voters tend...
Despite the growing literature on populist radical-right parties (PRRP), the relationship between turnout and populist voting remains understudied, especially for Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). In this article, we analyze the individual-level factors that differentiate between those choosing voice (voting for PRRP) and exit (abstention) in the 2...

Bajo este sistema electoral se han ido produciendo diferentes resultados electorales. Progresivamente se ha ido reduciendo la pre...

Addressing the challenge of migrant integration through ICT-enabled solutions, in MICADO Migrant Integration Cockpits and Dashboard, experts from public administration, migration research, and IT create an EU-wide applicable business intelligence solution in support of migrant integration, and pilot it in Antwerp, Bologna, Hamburg, and Madrid. The solution leverages existing and new data to design digital services for three user groups: 1) migrants and refugees, 2) engaged civic society, and 3) public authorities.
The technological solution generated has been co-created and tested in different phases (co-creation, usability tests and piloting) with the participation of 742 people (405 migrants, refugees and asylum seekers, 145 workers and heads of public administrations, 192 workers and heads of civil society organizations). They have also been supervised by LESC or local committees of experts and stakeholders.
The co-created solution core characteristics are: Multi-lingual content (English, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Chinese, Arabic, Urdu and Dari); Voice-over function to facilitate inclusive access for users with limited literary skills or reading difficulties; Glossary of terms; Basic Information by topic of interest (employment, health, education, housing, and participation); Step-by-step guide on administrative procedures; Events & Courses; Chatbot and personalized integration plans.
