Joaquim Meira

I am a Ph.D. Candidate in Political Science at Harvard University’s Department of Government, where I am also a graduate student associate at the Weatherhead Center for International Affairs and an affiliate of the Institute for Quantitative Social Science.

I study comparative politics and political economy, focusing on political representation, elections, and the media, particularly in Latin America. My dissertation project investigates the effects of social media and digital communication on political parties in countries like Brazil and Argentina.
