Dr. Nicolai Goritz leitet das Projekt BIOPOLISTA, das sich mit der Umsetzung von Bioökonomie-Politiken in verschiedenen Ländern befasst. Das Projekt untersucht, wie nationale und internationale Strategien zur Bioökonomie in der Praxis umgesetzt werden und welche Faktoren deren Erfolg oder Scheitern beeinflussen. Für Unternehmen und staatliche Akteure ist dies relevant, um zu verstehen, welche regulatorischen Rahmenbedingungen und Governance-Strukturen eine nachhaltige Bioökonomie fördern oder hemmen. Die Forschung verbindet Policy-Analyse mit empirischen Methoden, um handlungsrelevante Erkenntnisse für die Gestaltung von Bioökonomie-Strategien zu liefern.

• Political Settlements and Development

  2022

  DOI

  Abstract Few concepts have captured the imagination of the conflict and development communities in recent years as powerfully as the idea of a ‘political settlement’. At its most ambitious, ‘political settlements analysis’ (PSA) promises to explain why conflicts occur and states collapse, the conditions for their successful rehabilitation, different developmental pathways from peace, and how to better fit development policy to country context. Yet despite the meteoric rise of the term and its tremendous promise, not all is well in the world of PSA. Rival definitions of the concept abound; there are disagreements about its scope and the way it should be used; a growing schism between conflict specialists and economists; basic concepts are ambiguous; and little progress has been made on measurement. This book consequently has three main aims. The first is to argue for a revised definition of a political settlement, capable of unifying its diverse strands. The second is to put the concept on a more solid theoretical and scientific footing, providing a method for measuring and categorizing political settlements, using both qualitative case studies and a large-n statistical analysis to illustrate its potential. And the third is to examine the implications of the findings for mainstream social science analysis and for policymakers.

• The Political Settlements Dataset: Power Configurations and Political Blocs in the Global South, 1946-2018

  2024

  International Interactions · DOI

  Political scientists have long sought to understand power dynamics across the Global South, but efforts to systematically capture political power have been limited, and existing datasets have faced conceptual and measurement challenges. The Political Settlements (PolSett) dataset was developed to address these issues. This original expert survey-based dataset includes over one hundred political economy variables coded for forty two countries from 1946 or independence to 2018 (totalling 2,718 country years). It allows for a detailed mapping of countries’ power configurations, capturing information on the relative size, power and social composition of competing political blocs in society, as well as their internal cohesion, accountability relations and distribution of benefits. The dataset is expected to enable more direct and rigorous analyses of power differentials in the Global South and their impact on political and economic developments. This letter describes the conceptual background of the dataset, how it was constructed, discusses its validity, and highlights some of its key features.
