Current Topics

On the picture, with Martijn Icks and Jennifer Keohane at the Auto/Biography and Reputation Politics conference,  2020, University of Vienna. Check our website for updates.

Currently, we focus on several research ideas and their applications:
  • Studying and building effective defenses against character attacks.
  • Studying "immunity" against character attacks (both individual and political factors).
  • Researching and cataloging historical cases and designing their contemporary applications.
  • Analyzing individual vulnerabilities that make people susceptible to character attacks.
  • Examining character attacks against political leaders as a modern form of psychological warfare.
  • Further explaining psychological mechanisms of character attacks in specific cultural and historical contexts. 
  • Studying character attacks against women and explaining the gender factor in reputation management.
