As a Professor of International Law and Development working at a development studies institute (ISS, The Hague, The Netherlands - part of Erasmus University Rotterdam) I am interested in exploring how international law can be a stimulus or an obstacle for development. I am especially interested in inclusive development, and in human rights-based and child rights-based approaches to development. I also have ample experience with project work in both developing and developed countries, for governmental and non-governmental organizations. Please check https://www.iss.nl/en/people/karin-arts

I am a research fellow in the Institutions and Political Inequality research unit. I received his Ph.D. in Political Science in 2017, from the Central European University Budapest, with a dissertation on how the dynamics of party ideological shifts, economic inequality, and individual political participation unfold over time. In my current work I focus on the measurement of political inequality in deep participatory processes (such as citizen consultations), and the institutional determinants of cross-country variation in political inequality. I am interested in statistics, data visualization, and the history of Leftist parties.
