Sonia Alonso was awarded her PhD by the Autonomous University of
Madrid and the Juan March Institute. Since 2004 she has been a
Senior Research Fellow at the Social Science Research Centre Berlin
(WZB) and, before this, she has done research and teaching in
various universities: University Carlos III of Madrid, St. Antony's
College (Oxford University), Royal Holloway College, and University
of Salamanca. Her main research interests involve the analysis of
political
devolution, party competition in decentralised states, minority
nationalism, and ethnic conflict.
Alonso convincingly resolves this contradiction about
center-periphery conflict and its related party competition.
