Hi! I am Johannes Lattmann, a doctoral researcher at the Graduate School of Economic and Social Sciences, at the University of Mannheim. I am also an associate researcher at the Chair of Comparative Politics with Prof. Marc Debus and teach courses on quantitative text analysis and research design.

I focus on political behaviour and political economy in European democracies, examining changes in public opinion and attitudes. In my dissertation, I focus on the consequences of the allocation of EU place-based policies. Methodologically, I utilize a range of quantitative methods, including causal inference, experiments, and various techniques from the computational text analysis toolkit.

My work has been published in journals such as Electoral Studies, European Union Politics, and Public Choice.

In 2023, I was awarded the CDSS Young Scholar Award for organizing job talks to support the career development of Master’s and PhD students.

Before my start in Mannheim, I obtained a M.Sc at the London School of Economic & Political Sciences and a B.A in Social Science from Humboldt-University Berlin. On this website, you can learn more about my research and download my CV. Please reach out if you want to connect!
