About Pelle Ahlerup

CV

My research interests lie in the broad fields of institutional and development economics. Within these fields, I have a special interest in taxation, ethnic diversity, agriculture, the political economy of natural disasters, and conflict. Recently, I have mainly focused on public goods and taxation in Rwanda, and on agricultural investments in Zambia.

I am a member of the board of ASWEDE (Association of Swedish Development Economists) and the editorial board of Ekonomisk Debatt.
