Education Ph D in Political Economy University of Barcelona. MA in Political Science The New School for Social Research, New York. BA in Economics University of Barcelona Current research projects: Spanish Policy Agendas Project(IP) ( The goal of this project is to analyze policy dynamics in Spain from transition to democracy to present in a comparative perspective. This means to explore the interrelation between the governmental, parliamentarian and media agendas across time, issues, countries and levels of government. The project establishes a link between policy dynamics research and other areas of concern within political science, mainly media studies, political representation and the quality of democracy in a multilevel system of government. It also provides of new tool for the development of quantitative measurement of policy dynamics. For the last years, we have created comprehensive and far-reaching datasets, which account for more than records, about the Spanish political and media agenda following the methodology of the comparative agendas project (lead by Prof. B Jones, University of Austin-Texas and F. Baumgartner, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill) Comparative research on interest groups in a multilevel system of governance (IP) The goal of this research project is to promote a comprehensive theoretical and empirical understanding of the role that interest groups play in multilevel systems of governance. To do that we develop a comprehensive database in order to map out which interest organizations have participated, discussing which issues, across different policy venues for the last decades in Spain. This research project share some methodological aspects with two other international projects, the Intereuro (lead by Prof. D. Lowery) 1
