The question why people respond to interpersonal misconduct with punishment is studied in various scientific disciplines, including psychology, legal sciences, and economics. Interdisciplinary literature on the topic often suffers from language barriers, hindering the integration of research findings. Mathias Twardawski’s project aims at overcoming these language barriers to facilitate the integration of research from several fields.

Mathias Twardawski is CAS Researcher in Residence during the winter semester 2024/25.

A registration is required. You can find more information on the CAS website.
