PROSPER – Politics of Rule-making, Orchestration of Standards and Private Economic Regulations
PROSPER is a 2-year project (2019-2021) funded by the European Commission under the European Union Horizon2020 Marie Skłodowska-Curie individual fellowship programme. The main objective of the project is to examine the politics of international trade from the perspective of multinational companies (MNCs) and global value chains (GVCs). I primarily seek to understand how and under which conditions MNCs coordinate their political activities across GVCs, how their behavior influence structures of trade governance, and the distributional consequences of international trade at the firm level.
