Andrea's scholarship has consistently explored the nexus between law and politics, with a particular focus on the operation of constitutional courts in different political contexts. Her publications offer insights into the evolving dynamics between the judiciary and political actors.
In addition to her academic role, Andrea is also an journalist with a focus on reporting on judicial issues and political developments in the Czech Republic.
