*** Welcome on the personal page of Sylvain MAECHLER ***
I am a Postdoctoral Researcher in International Relations with a focus on International Political economy and Global Environmental Governance. I am the principal investigator for a project funded by the Swiss National Fund for Research on central banks and the ecological crisis. I am currently based at the University of Ottawa as a Postdoctoral fellow of the Centre for International Policy Studies
I hold a PhD in political science from the University of Lausanne titled:
“Accounting for Nature: Risk, Uncertainty, and the Global Political Economy of the Ecological Crisis.”
My research interests include the politics of risk and uncertainty in the age of ecological crisis, the global governance of biodiversity and climate change, green accounting, the economic valuation of nature, and green central banking.
This work has been published in several journals, such as Global Environmental Politics, New Political Economy, Valuation Studies, Review of International Political Economy, or European Journal of International Relations.
