CEU Department of Public Policy
The CEU Department of Public Policy (DPP) focuses on the multidisciplinary study of global public policy issues both in theory and in practice.
DPP offers five master's degrees in public policy, and the public policy track of the Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science program. The degree programs are tailored for students from around the world seeking careers in the public, private, and not-for-profit sectors at the local, national, European Union and international levels. The department boasts a team of outstanding resident faculty, w
On March 13th, together with the Open Society Foundations, the Global Commission on Drug Policy, UNITE Parliamentarians Network for Global Health and the CEU Research Group on Drugs, CEU’s Shattuck Center for Human Rights co-hosted a panel discussion on the eve of the 67th session of the UN Commission on Narcotic Drugs (CND) in Vienna.
The fascinating discussion displayed the current state of drug policy strategies and how punitive approaches contradict scientific evidence and lessons learned from innovative, compassionate and successful practices that seek to maintain individual human dignity.

Together with her coauthors, Prof. Anna Dreber Almenberg from Stockholm redoes experiments published in high impact journals with new and larger samples to see whether the main result replicates.
As an experimentalist, she also asks researchers to test the same hypotheses on the same data or to design experiments testing the same hypothesis to see whether the results hold.
She will be sharing her insights and results with us on 20 March in a seminar at CEU in Vienna.
We love to combine our studies with a bit of activism and a bit of fun!
In the continuation of the DPP Film Series, we are showing two short independent movies, focusing on drug policy and harm reduction.
After the screening, there will be a Q&A session with the film producers and staff from NGOs Drug Reporter (Hungary) and Échele Cabeza (Colombia), who work on the main topic discussed in both films.
With a stellar line up of experts, we attack head on the challenge of the drug policy regime seemingly running in parallel to the human rights regime.
This event, which will be webstreamed, will address the questions of how UN agencies involved in drug policy can better coordinate and complement each other to achieve full protection and respect for human rights.

Theories of voting behaviour are based on the assumption that citizens accurately assess the comparative advantage of the available policy options. But can they appreciate the outcomes of some policies, especially if they have indirect or equilibrium effects?
This research by Salvatorre Nunnari, Eugenio Proto and Aldo Rustichini, deep dives into the question of how cognitive abilities of voters influence the formation of preferences over policies and what is the underlying mechanism.
DPP will have the privilege of hosting one of the authors in our EBPM seminar series on 13 March.
💊Is twentieth-century drug prohibition effective in eradicating narcotics and psychotropic substances? Recent debates challenge its efficacy, leading to shifts toward harm reduction and decriminalization in certain regions.

⚡Widespread frustration with representative democracy makes even the long established traditional parties adapt under pressures to provide social movement-like experiences.
🥁In a newly published paper in the German Political Science Quarterly, our postdoctoral fellow Felix Butzlaff analyses these strategies by political parties in Germany, Austria and the UK.
💡Whereas Social Democrats envision a more bottom-up re-organization but seriously suffer from the tensions this causes among different member groups, Conservatives (if at all) embrace movement-ization as a top-down steered strategic re-branding.
The article is open access and can be found here https://rdcu.be/dtgWh.

🎤Join us today for a lecture by Mary Kaldor, our Visiting Professor.
🎤This lecture will put forward the argument that the world is in the midst of an experimental juncture when dramatic political change takes place.
🎤We can only escape from the current drama through social pressure for a transformation of world order that combines a human rights based political system with a resource saving economic model.

We are delighted to announce a very important project initiated by our visiting lecturer and the founder of the Media and Journalism Research Centre, Marius Dragomir.
"Decoding the Power Play: Media and Elections in 2024", will chart the interplay among media, political parties and the business sector in a highly charged electoral year 2024 in a wide number of important countries including the US, EU, potentially the UK, India, Russia, Indonesia, South Africa, Mexico, Pakistan, South Korea, a string of European countries and over a dozen African nations.
The project will systematically examine and track two crucial areas that significantly shape the dynamics of the electoral process: media ownership and political finance, as well as social networks.
We wish him all the success!

The article looks at whether corruption risks in public procurement impact the profitability of firms in the Swedish construction industry.
The empirical findings underscore that public procurement corruption risks distort markets and economic incentives, and that this risk is present even in low-corruption contexts such as in Sweden.

We are continuing with our evidence-based policy making seminar series and this time we are joining forces with the History Department to welcome a renowned historian from the University of Vienna, Prof. Dr. Peter Becker.
The talk will be about the decision-making practices of the Austrian emperor Francis Joseph who made efforts to weld the modern state and the capitalist economy into the logic of bureaucratic monarchical rule. The result was a rationality crisis, which spread out into the entire system of public administration.

The students from the Nationalism Department have reinstated their film club and are inviting you to their next screening!
👓This week, 16 Nov at 19:30, they will be watching and discussing a film about Romanian families searching for a decent place to live in France.
🚧From their abandoned village, to the demolished slum and occupied houses, their quest weaves together a common history, forged through solidarity and marked by displacement.
