Brief Biography

Dr Arndt received his Ph.D. in Political Science from Department of Political Science, Aarhus University in 2011, following a master's degree in sociology. Prior to arriving at the University of Reading he was postdoc and assistant professor at Aarhus University. During this time, he worked on a project on how new cultural issues such as immigration, law and order and national identify have reshaped electoral alignments and party politics in Denmark since 1968. An ongoing comparative project with Dr Arndt as Co-investigator further examines how welfare state reforms affects support for the incumbent government and how policy-makers strategically act to hide the consequences of unpopular decisions and policies.
