Carles Pamies

My name is Carles Pamies, and I am an Assistant Professor in Political Science at the National University of Distance Education (UNED) in Madrid, as well as a visiting professor at Sciences Po, Paris. I earned my PhD in Political Science (cum laude, with international distinction) at the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid (UAM).

I was a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Institute of Public Goods and Policies (IPP) of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC), where I obtained a Juan de la Cierva fellowship, and at the Centre d'études européennes et de politique comparée of Sciences Po, and before that, I was also a Research Assistant at the Université de Liège and held visiting positions at the University of Oxford. I have also been hired for three European projects and three national ones.

My research focuses on political parties and the representation of migrants, and my work has been published in journals such as the American Behavioral Scientist, Democratization, European Political Science, the Journal of Contemporary European Studies, Politics and Governance, the Revista Española de Investigaciones Sociológicas, the Revista Internacional de Sociología, and in chapters in publishers such as Palgrave Macmillan, among others.

I would like to contribute to projects studying the challenges that democracies face, particularly those related to migration and the political integration of migrants. I am also interested in projects that analyse issues relating to strengthening the functioning of democratic regimes.

I have been hired for three European projects (Horizon, the EU Rights, Equality and Citizenship Programme, and a Robert Bosch Stiftung) as well as three national ones in Spain (Proyectos de Generación de Conocimiento) as project technician, predoctoral researcher and postdoctoral researcher.
