Anica Waldendorf

I am a Postdoctoral Prize Research Fellow at Nuffield College, University of Oxford. I completed my PhD at the Department of Social and Political Sciences, at the European University Institute in Florence (Italy).

In my dissertation “The power of language. The use, effect, and spread of gender-inclusive language” (supervised by Arnout van de Rijt and Klarita Gërxhani), I combine several empirical methods (quantitative text analysis, a digitial field experiment, qualitative interviews, and ego-centric network analysis) to explore the phenomenon of gender-inclusive language from a sociological perspective.
