There he is also pursuing his PhD, titled “Awakening to the Era of Weaponized Interdependence? Semiconductor Production Networks, Sino-U.S. Tech Competition, and European Responses,” under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Xuewu Gu and Jun.-Prof. Dr. Maximilian Mayer. He holds an MA in Political Science and a BA in History, Politics, and Society from the University of Bonn.
At AGI, Philip Nock will research semiconductor technology and re-shoring initiatives. During his fellowship, he will develop recommendations for better U.S.-German policy coordination by harnessing the complementary strengths of U.S. and German industry and research (and those of third partners). For this purpose, he will map existing re-shoring initiatives and projects in the United States and Germany planned since 2020, analyze German and U.S. legislation and strategic documents, and conduct expert interviews to identify areas of misalignment.
