In general, I am interested in the principled challenges and transformations of democracy in the Western world. More recently, I focus on the transnationalization of national democracies. I believe that Western democracies must join forces and should re-constitutionalize and transnationalize their forms of democracy in order to democratize the existing intergovernmentalist system of cooperation, which is important to address populist and authoritarian challenges. The following aspects are crucial:
- Taking the spread of multiple/dual citizenships as an inspiration for jointly constitutionalizing overlapping demoi
- Taking the trends to enfranchise non-national residents and non-resident nationals as an inspiration for granting not only migrants/mobile people, but also sedentary people the opportunity to get voting rights in multiple national elections
- Taking the increased (technical) opportunities for external influence in the will-formation processes of national democracies as a stimulus for opening up legitimate and jointly constitutionalized channels of transnational influence
- Taking the insight seriously that even formally equal relationships among polities are always characterized by asymmetric power relations as an inspiration to think about the democratization of empires

From 2008 to 2015, I focussed on migration and its impact on citizenship. In our research we looked at the interaction amongst national, transnational and cosmopolitan citizenship and their particular forms of political engagement (interests, identification, participation and solidarity). A core feature of our research is to clearly differentiate between transnational (i.e. multinational) and cosmopolitan (i.e. supranational) citizenship. Empirically, we looked at the extent to which the status of dual citizenship has an impact on political information, participation and identification in the country of residence and on the development of transnational and cosmopolitan political involvement.

From 2000 to 2010, my research focussed on theorizing and tracing the transformations of governance. The notion of governance allows for a multi- and transdisciplinary conceptualization of political steering and integration by bringing together a multiplicity of theories from diverse fields of the social sciences and from cultural studies. This permits for a wider understanding of politico-societal steering and integration. Core elements from economics, sociology, psychology as well as cultural and communication studies can be loosely connected through a typology of forms of Governance. All ideal types are characterized by specific micro-foundations (theories of individual behaviour) and by the corresponding institutional structures and mechanisms.
Paradigms and real cases of political steering and integration are analysed and interpreted with the help of such typologies. Whereas the dissertation focused on forms of governance in European and North American border regions, the Habilitation work looks at changes in the underlying conceptions (paradigms) towards political steering and integration at US metropolitan regions from 1850 until 2000. The empirical analysis makes it clear that the latest paradigm shift is characterised by the change of a rational-instrumental to a reflexive-constitutive approach towards socio-political steering and integration.

During the last 15 years, I made major contributions to qualitative research methods. When it comes to the design of case studies, I am advocating a pluralist approach, which does not only include the traditional comparative cases designs (also called Co-Variational Analysis), and (Causal) Process Tracing, but also Congruence Analysis, which aims at comparing the empirical power of distinct theoretical frameworks, instead of isolating the causal influence of a variable or identifying the working of causal mechanisms. A further important stance in my methodological contributions is the emphasis on “configurational thinking” (Charles Ragin). In consequence, we set up the “Lucerne Cluster for Configurational Methods (LUCCS).”

Our main research focus is on the contemporary challenges that Western democracies face. We believe that we have to rethink and transform our understanding of democracy in order to cope with the technical, socio-economic and cultural challenges of the 21st Century. The main transformations can be scrutinized as follows:
- The transformation from national self-determination to cooperative decision-making in multi-layered systems
- The transformation of political interests formation and mediation from "representation" to "presentation" in multimodal systems of communication
- The transformation from exclusive to overlapping demoi through migration, mobility and multiple citizenship
While many commentators and most political scientists assume that the current challenges to democracy will lead to a crisis and even perhaps to its demise, our aim is to analyse both dangers and opportunities for democracy. In particular, we assume that new understandings and conceptualizations of democratic politics are needed. The "first transformation of democracy" (and democratic theory) occurred with the transformation from the direct and elitist democracy of the ancient Greek republics and early modernity to the representative national democracies of modern nation states. Assuming that we are currently experiencing a "second transformation of democracy," we need to ask the following questions:
- Which aspects of modern democratic rule are getting contingent, become politicised and in turn form the basis for a reconstitution of democracy? What are the main drivers and factors that influence these processes and their outcomes (positive analysis of the ongoing transformation of democracy)?
- Which principles, institutions and practices are necessary or helpful so that we can also speak of a legitimate and democratic political order after the second democratic transformation (normative evaluation of ongoing and proposed changes; development of own proposals)?

Migration is seen mainly as a problem for the socioeconomic and political integration of nation states, in both public discourse and in most research within the social sciences. In contrast, many theorists and activists see migrants at the forefront of a transnational or cosmopolitan citizenship. In our research we aim to look at the interaction amongst national, transnational and cosmopolitan citizenship and their particular forms of political engagement (interests, identification, participation and solidarity). Theoretically, our main aim is to clearly differentiate between transnational (i.e. multinational) and cosmopolitan (i.e. supranational) citizenship. Empirically, we look at the extent to which the status of dual citizenship has an impact on political information, participation and identification in the country of residence and on the development of transnational and cosmopolitan political involvement.

Case studies play an important role in Political Science. In recent years, we have witnessed an unprecedented methodological reflection on this research approach. Together with colleagues, Joachim Blatter has contributed to the methodological discourse. In his own research and in text books, he has combined case studies with other qualitative methods, especially Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA).
