Doctoral Project

To what extent are European middle powers responding to increasing strategic competition between China and the U.S. in security and technology policy? Why is it so difficult for U.S. governments to assert their preferences in 5G network rollout and semiconductor supply chains? What role does the quest for digital sovereignty play? In his dissertation "The Fate of Middle Powers in Systemic Competition. Neoclassical Realism, Sino-US Tech-competition, and how European Middle Powers respond," Philip Nock explores these questions through in-depth case studies of British, German, and Dutch politics.
