Happy to be part of the topical special issue ‘Still a Reliable Ally?’ about #Trump 2.0, edited by @atlanticboeller.bsky.social & Jakob Wiedekind: link.springer.com/journal/1239...

As #Latvia 🇱🇻 will soon represent the #EU 🇪🇺 in the #UNSC 🇺🇳, I had the pleasure to discuss with @latvijasradio.bsky.social about the current challenges to #multilateralism posed by the disengagement of the great powers #US 🇺🇸, #China 🇨🇳 and #Russia 🇷🇺: www.lsm.lv/raksts/zinas...

Is there a more Munich way to end the year than heading to a beergarden for Bavarian curling? 🥌❄️ Cold air, warm drinks, friendly competition, and plenty of laughs accompanied the winter event of the teams Seelkopf, Rittberger & Zangl. Happy holidays and all the best for 2026!

What can we learn from Trump 1.0 for Trump 2.0 🇺🇸 and the future of the liberal international order #LIO? 🌐 In a recent study in @iajournal.bsky.social, I assessed #Trump 1.0’s attacks against int’ institutions and their consequences: doi.org/10.1093/ia/i... Key findings & implications👇

LMU-Politologe @heinkelmann-wild.bsky.social untersucht wie internationale Organisationen ohne die Unterstützung der #USA handlungsfähig bleiben können und warum #Europa jetzt gefordert ist, multilaterale Strukturen zu stabilisieren. 🌍 🤝 #LMUMuenchen #Multilateralismus www.lmu.de/de/newsroom/...

I am deeply honored to have received the #DeutscherStudienpreis by Julia Kloeckner @bundestag.de🏆🇩🇪 This PhD award by the #KoerberStiftung values rigorous, societally relevant research – which is exactly what I strive for in my work @lmumuenchen.bsky.social #LMU & @eui-eu.bsky.social #EUI!

📣 New research: In a new paper, @bendassler.bsky.social, together with Angelo Gerber-Helm and @mirkoheinzel.bsky.social, analyses how newly created contender institutions navigate their pre-existing institutional environments: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Does #Trump 2.0 mean the decline of global governance and the resurgence of traditional great-power politics? The death of global governance is not inevitable but will depend on how major powers respond, argue @benjaminfaude.bsky.social and I in a recent article: doi.org/10.1007/s435... 👇

The first #G20 summit in Africa was overshadowed by #US absence. What does this tell us about this institution – and int' politics more generally in the age of Trumpism? I had the pleasure to share my views about these questions with Romain Chanson for @jeuneafrique.com 👇

Back in #Brussels and very much looking forward to a week packed with conversations about Europe’s support for #multilateralism with #EU, #NATO, #UN, and government officials as well as researchers of the @ensured.bsky.social & EU NAVIGATOR projects! 🇪🇺 🇺🇳

I am deeply honored that my PhD thesis on the #US withdrawal from #multilateralism has been selected for the biannual dissertation award of the #UN Association of Germany #DGVN! 🇩🇪🇺🇳🏆 dgvn.de/meldung/dgvn...

Is the #US 🇺🇸 disengagement from the #LIO a Trump-specific or a more general phenomenon? Treating #Trump as a mere aberration risks overlooking structural forces that are driving the US away from the LIO, argue Leonard Schütte (@belfercenter.bsky.social) and I in #ZFAS: doi.org/10.1007/s123...

„In Ländern wie Deutschland […] haben verheiratete #Frauen im Durchschnitt einen höheren Steuersatz als ledige.“ betont Laura Seelkopf. Die #LMU-Wissenschaftlerin untersucht, wie #Steuersysteme Menschen unterschiedlich behandeln – und was das für Gleichstellung und Wirtschaft bedeutet. 🔎

How can member states convince citizens to support #compliance with contested #EU policies? 🇪🇺 In our recent contribution to @govjournal.bsky.social , Asya Zhelyazkova, @thijslin.bsky.social, Agnieszka Kanas and I draw on a survey experiment to examine the effectiveness of different strategies👇

I am excited to spend the coming academic year as a Max Weber Fellow at the @eui-eu.bsky.social – Europe’s “Hogwarts,” as The Economist recently put it.

International politics becomes increasingly (geo-)politicized. How do IOs respond? Which are resilient and which decay? Our panel at the @ecpr.bsky.social General Conference in Thessaloniki today provided answers to these questions 👇 #ecprgc25 #Geopolitics #IR

Der Rückzug der #USA 🇺🇸 aus internationalen Institutionen unter Donald #Trump ist nicht so außergewöhnlich wie oft angenommen argumentiere ich in meinem neusten Beitrag in der #ZIB (@zibjournal.bsky.social | @dvpw.bsky.social): www.nomos-elibrary.de/10.5771/0946...

Since I started working in academia, it has been my ambition to conduct rigorous research on topics that matter. This is why I am particularly thrilled about the #DeutscherStudienpreis of the #Körber-Stiftung, that puts emphasis on the societal relevance next to the excellency of PhD theses.

As the political rift between the #US & #Europe is deepening, it was great to meet & exchange w/ stellar colleagues from both sides of the Atlantic about the US withdrawal from the int' order, its future, and Europe's role within it at the 2025 CES Conference at Temple University, Philadelphia.

Very happy to see this interview about #Trump and the future of #Multilateralism with @mariekeliesbeth.bsky.social out in the @laviedesidees.bsky.social. The English version can be found here: booksandideas.net/Multilateral...

En désignant les organisations internationales comme boucs émissaires, les attaques trumpistes sapent le multilatéralisme et l'ordre libéral issu de 1945. Ce désengagement américain relance le débat sur un possible leadership alternatif porté par l'UE.

What does #Trump 2.0 🇺🇸 mean for the future of #multilateralism? It was a great pleasure to present insights from my research on the #US ambivalence towards int' institutions under Trump & beyond at the Atlantic Forum of @atlantakademie.bsky.social‬ & @rptu.bsky.social 👇

Wie sieht die Zukunft des #Multilateralismus ohne die #USA aus? Und wie kann #Europa reagieren? Am Dienstag 3.6. ab 18:00 spreche ich hierzu im Atlantischen Forum der @atlantakademie.bsky.social‬ & @rptu.bsky.social‬. Die Veranstaltung ist öffentlich: www.atlantische-akademie.de/atfo-juni-25
