Werner Neff

Werner Neff received his Ph.D. in Political Science at the Freie Universität Berlin, and his Master’s degree in Economics at Universität St.Gallen, Switzerland. He earned his professional wisdom as an executive in the hospitality industry and later, as an executive at a large Swiss bank. Neff, deeply passionate about democracy, political science, and economics, is now fulfilling on his long-time dream of researching about the origin, principles, and values of democracy. He concludes that the shift and erosion of political values have shaped the American social economy and the current gap between the wealthy and the working people.
