Stephanie J Rickardis Professor at the London School of Economics and Political Science in the Department of Government. She earned her PhD at the University of California, San Diego and her BA at the University of Rochester. Her research examines issues at the intersection of politics and international economics, including trade agreements, subsidies, industrial policy and international financial rescues. In her award-winning book, Spending to Win, Stephanie investigates why governments selectively target economic benefits, like subsidies, to businesses. Based on interviews with government ministers and bureaucrats, as well as parliamentary records, industry publications, local media coverage, and new quantitative data, Stephanie demonstrates how economic policy is shaped by political institutions and economic geography.

In addition to academic research, Stephanie has been engaged in policy debates, for example, testifying in the UK Parliament. She also comments on events in the global economy, including, for example, on BBC Radio 4's Today programme.
