معرفی
Bruno Cautrès is a CNRS Professor affiliated with the Center for Political Research (CEVIPOF) at Sciences Po, where he conducts research on political behavior, electoral systems, and opinion polling. He serves on the editorial boards of the Revue Française de Science Politique and Revue Française de Sociologie, contributing to France's leading political science publications.
His research spans two decades of French electoral studies including the 2002-2017 National Election Panels, with recent focus on political trust through CEVIPOF's Political Trust Barometer. He has coordinated major cross-national surveys like the European Social Survey (rounds 1-2) and participated in the International Social Survey Program, European Values Studies, and European Election Studies. His work demonstrates consistent methodological rigor in quantitative analysis of voting behavior and democratic legitimacy.
Analysis of his 15 most recent publications (2019-2023) reveals three dominant research trajectories: (1) Evolution of French electoral cleavages (particularly the left-right divide), (2) French-specific manifestations of Euroscepticism blending ambivalence with institutional distrust, and (3) Crisis-driven political behavior during the pandemic. These intersect with broader themes of democratic representation challenges in fragmented societies.
Cautrès lectures in political science, political sociology, and quantitative methods at Sciences Po and international programs including ECPR and IPSA methods workshops. His survey coordination work with national and transnational projects constitutes significant scholarly infrastructure for comparative politics research, though specific grant details aren't provided in the source material.
