I use (quasi) experiments to study elections and democracy, and on how voters and parties react (and proact ! ) to democratic institutions. I also sometimes try to contribute to methodological debates about the use of surveys and experiments in the social sciences.

I've published 40 papers on the topic. Below is a selection of the 10 papers that I like the most and that are the most representative of my research interests. For a complete list of publications, see here.
