About

Breno A. H. Marisguia

I am a postdoctoral fellow in the Graduate Program in Political Science at the Federal University of Minas Gerais, where I also received my Ph.D. in Political Science.

My research focuses on comparative politics, political institutions, and presidential interruptions in Latin America. I also work on research methods, epistemology, Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA), and computational tools that make social science research more transparent, systematic, and auditable.

Alongside my academic research, I have collaborated on applied projects concerning public-sector leadership, legislative-regulatory competencies, lobbying regulation, social policy evaluation, and democratic institutions in Brazil. I am also the developer of qcaERT, an R package for robustness assessment in QCA.
