Luis Cornago Bonal

I am a PhD Candidate in Politics at the University of Oxford, Department of Politics and International Relations (DPIR). From September 2024 to September 2025, I am a Rafael Del Pino Excellence Fellow.

My research interests lie at the intersection of comparative political economy, political sociology, and political behaviour. In my dissertation, I investigate the increasing significance of political identities in nonpolitical settings across advanced economies. My work particularly focuses on how these identities shape the behaviour of employees and firms. In parallel, I also explore how different fields of university education influence political attitudes and civic behaviors.

Prior to starting the doctorate, I graduated from the London School of Economics (MSc in Comparative Politics) and the University Carlos III of Madrid (Dual Bachelor's Degree in Political Science and Sociology). 

Outside academia, I was a Europe analyst at Teneo’s political risk division in London from September 2018 to September 2021.
