Doris Fuchs' main research areas are sustainable development and international political economy. Conceptual topics such as power (especially structural and discursive power), sustainable consumption or financialization are just as much a focus of interest as their empirical analysis in the policy fields of environmental, energy or agricultural and food policy.
