Europe’s authoritarian shift
(2023)
The European Union prides itself for being a legal order and a supranational organisation created through, and organised around, a specific institutional framework and an ordoliberal-inspired “rules against discretion” approach. Theories of ‘integration through law’ abound and the European Monetary Union (EMU) remains a unique common currency area structured within a constitutional framework. Officially, the formal priority of treaties, mandates and the European legal framework are presented as the sine qua non of ...

Staat und Staatlichkeit im digitalen Zeitalter
(transcript, 2023-11-01)
Wie steht es um den Staat im »digitalen Zeitalter«? Der Wandel des Staates in der Leistungsdimension und der Staatlichkeit in der Steuerungsdimension ist eher die Regel als eine Ausnahme. Für die 1990er-Jahre wurde er mit dem Modellwechsel vom »intervenierenden Leistungsstaat« zum »kooperativen Gewährleistungsstaat« als Transformation beschrieben. Im Angesicht der »Digitalisierung« und weiterer Megatrends zeigen sich die nächsten tiefgreifenden Wandlungsprozesse. Samuel Greef beleuchtet den neuen Mix aus Steuerungsformen ...

Les dynamiques socio-économiques du Hirak Algérien : un facteur souvent ignoré
(2023-09)
• In 2019, Algeria experienced one of the largest popular uprisings the country has ever seen in its post-independence history: the Hirak.
• The crisis had been looming for several years, as shifts in the political elite increased. The end of the financial boom exacerbated this process.
• Between 2015 and 2018, oil and gas export revenues declined by an average of 14% per year.
• Socioeconomic factors ultimately contributed to the outbreak of the Algerian hirak.

Ordoliberalism Out of Order? The Fragile Constitutionality of Greek Austerity (Part Two)
(2020-06)
This is the second part of a two-part post. The first part, available here, considered the historical background of the concept of constitutional order and its relation to the ordoliberal project. Judicial independence was examined in parallel with central bank independence, with each understood as a means of insulating policy from social and democratic pressures and also as a means of enacting and maintaining fiscal discipline and market-conforming order. It also included some preliminary observations on the relation ...

Ordoliberalism Out of Order? The Fragile Constitutionality of Greek Austerity (Part One)
(2020-05)
The architecture of the European Monetary Union (EMU) has often been understood to be built on a fundamentally ordoliberal framework. [1] The precise characteristics of what constitutes an ordoliberal framework are often not clarified, and they have been widely debated in contemporary scholarship. But a crucial characteristic of ordoliberalism, and one that has received comparatively little attention, concerns the importance of grounding economic policy in a “constitutional order”: ordoliberal political economy insists ...

Ordoliberalism and the Making of the Economic Constitution: State, Law, and Money in the Market Economy
(2023)
The aim of my research is to explore the political economy of ordoliberalism in its historical trajectory. Beginning from the years of its inception during the interwar period, the dissertation focuses on the specific conditions and political economy of the Weimar Republic as the framework within which the ordoliberal framework was developed. Moving on to the postwar period, the dissertation examines the attempts of operationalization of the ordoliberal framework within the context of West Germany and the social ...
