Juliana Chueri
Assistant Professor of Comparative Politics, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam
Juliana Chueri is Assistant Professor of Comparative Politics at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. Her research examines how welfare states adapt to political and technological disruption, with a focus on populist radical-right politics, platform work, and the politics of artificial intelligence.
She completed her PhD in Political Science at the University of Geneva in March 2020 with the dissertation Who Deserves Welfare? The Populist Radical Right’s Transformation of Social Policy. Before joining VU, she worked as a lecturer at Leiden University and as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Lausanne (IDHEAP).
In September 2025, she received a European Research Council (ERC) Starting Grant for the project (Re)distributive Politics after the AI Revolution (REPAIR), which studies how AI-driven labor market changes reshape preferences and politics around social protection.
