Political Scientist Luciana Leiderfarb Honoured with Carolina de Moyer Prize

In a significant development at the University of Oxford, Portuguese political scientist Luciana Leiderfarb has been awarded the prestigious Carolina de Moyer Prize this year.

The Council for European Studies, a renowned organisation dedicated to the advancement of European studies, presented the honour to Leiderfarb. The Carolina de Moyer Prize is an annual award given to individuals who have made significant contributions to European studies.

Leiderfarb, who teaches at the University of Oxford, has been a professor there for some time. Her expertise lies in the field of political science, and she has made notable contributions to the understanding of far-right politics.

Her book, 'The End of Shame: How the Far Right Became Normalized', published this year, has been well-received in academic circles. The book delves into the normalization of far-right politics and the erosion of shame in political discourse.

While Leiderfarb is a distinguished political scientist, it is important to note that she is also a journalist. However, her role as a journalist is not directly associated with her work at Oxford University.

Luciana Leiderfarb's work has been instrumental in shaping the discourse on far-right politics, and her awarding of the Carolina de Moyer Prize is a testament to her significant contributions to European studies. The University of Oxford is proud to employ such a distinguished scholar.
