Chris Hanretty joined UEA in 2010 from the European University Institute. Chris's doctoral thesis, "The Political Independence of Public Service Broadcasters", won the inaugural François Mény Prize for the Best Comparative Study of European Institutions and has now been published by Routledge. His work has been published in Electoral Studies and the British Journal of Political Science. He previously studied Politics, Philosophy & Economics at St. Anne's College, University of Oxford, and has worked for the United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN-HABITAT) and the OSCE.
Chris is interested in institutional design, and in particular the design of non-majoritarian institutions like regulators and broadcasters. He is also interested in judicial behaviour, and in particular the patterns of dissent on new constitutional courts in Central and Eastern Europe.
Chris teaches on the second year Comparative Politics and Building Blocks of Political Analysis modules. He also offers a third-year module on Parties, Elections, and Political Competition.
Chris would be interested in supervising any research involving comparative European politics, and Italian and Scandinavian politics in particular; and any research involving institutional design or party competition.
