Research Interests: His work examines the interplay between political economy and security, particularly in the context of civil wars and military expenditures. Key areas include the escalation of intrastate conflicts, international arms trade networks, and the economic implications of defense policies. His methodological focus lies in quantitative analysis and formal conflict modeling.

Publication Trends: His recent articles (2024) analyze rebel militarization and conflict duration using novel datasets like the Rebels' Armament Dataset (RAD). Earlier works (2017-2018) explore arms transfer destinations, non-proliferation norms, and pension reforms, demonstrating interdisciplinary applications of political economy frameworks.
