Series Two, Episode Two: Daniel Alves

For the second episode of our second series, we are joined by Daniel Alves, a PhD candidate who has been studying in the Department of Political Economy at King's College London since 2020.

Daniel's research is focussed on the politics of equity-enhancing reforms in Brazil, with a focus on the mechanisms and systems that have made policy reform possible in South America's largest economy. 

Daniel also talks to hosts Cameron Mitchell-Bell and Daniel Mansfield about studying for a PhD as the COVID-19 pandemic swept the globe, his hopes for the future, and why running is where some of his best ideas are born.

Music for the episode was Flash by Crowander and Stomps and Claps by Scott Holmes Music.
