Harald Edinger is a Researcher at the Department of Philosophy and Culturual Heritage, funded through a NextGenerationEU grant.

His research focuses on Russian foreign and security policy, specifically the evolution of its nuclear strategy and force posture.

Previously, he held postdoctoral positions at GIGA Hamburg and University College Dublin. Dr. Edinger obtained his DPhil from the University of Oxford in 2021 and an MA from Johns Hopkins SAIS in 2014. His doctoral research drew on classical realism and the life sciences to gain insights into the role of affect in foreign policy decision-making. He developed an analytical framework which was probed via several case studies in Russian-European relations between 1999 and 2014. Prior to his academic career, Dr. Edinger worked in management consulting and European financial regulation.
