Héctor Hermida-Rivera

I am a microeconomic theorist working on social choice, mechanism design, game theory, and political economy. Specifically, my research agenda revolves around two timeless challenges central to liberal democracies: constitutional stability and individual rights. Currently, I am a tenure-track assistant professor at HSE University; between 2023 and 2026, I was a postdoctoral fellow at the Budapest University of Technology & Economics. Prior to this, I obtained a Doctorate in Economics from the University of East Anglia in 2024 under the supervision of Ben McQuillin & Mich Tvede, a Master's Degree in Economic Analysis from the Autonomous University of Barcelona, a Master's Degree in Political Economy from the University of Essex, and a Bachelor's Degree in Political & Administration Sciences from Pompeu Fabra University.
