Esther Mary L. Calvo

Doctoral student
Department of Political Science

I obtained my B.A. (cum laude) and M.A. (with merit) in Political Science from the University of the Philippines Diliman and the Central European University respectively. Prior to coming to Lund, I taught in the Department of Social Sciences at the University of the Philippines Los Baños from 2014 to 2020. My main research interests include quantitative text analysis, legislative behavior and speech-making, and party competition.
