In this series, we have conversations with well-known experts to try to make sense of politics and governments around the world.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Hosting this show is Professor Victor Lapuente, and in this episode he is joined by Mattias vom Hau, a sociologist by training currently working at IBEI in Barcelona.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Matthias’ research is centrally concerned with the relationship between identity politics, institutions, and development, with a comparative-historical focus on Latin America. He has published widely on how states construct a sense of national belonging, how civil society actors negotiate and contest official nationalisms, and the extent to which ordinary citizens subscribe to official and counter-state identity projects.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The episode was recorded during the Science Festival in Gothenburg in May 2023.</p><p><br></p>","author_name":"The Quality of Government Institute"}
