Personal profile
Research Fellow, European Foreign and Security Policy Studies Programme (2006-2007); Teaching Fellow at Loughborough University (2007-2008); Post-doctoral Research Fellow at University of Bath (2007-2009); Lecturer at Bristol from 2009.
Research
My primary research interest lies in European foreign and security policy. In particular, my doctoral research analysed the European Union's activities in Bosnia (1991-2006). Drawing on historical institutionalism, the thesis used the empirical data to explore how the development of institutions affected the coherence and effectiveness of EU foreign policy over time. I am also interested in EU enlargement and the Europeanisation of the Western Balkans, security sector reform and organised crime. In other projects, I have explored international socialisation and learning processes within EU institutions, with particular reference to European foreign policy.
Teaching
My teaching interests are in Europeanisation, European foreign policy and international human rights. My teaching is research-led, but it is also designed to stimulate students' critical abilities and confidence. I am committed to facilitating student participation through the use of a wide range of teaching methods, including seminar discussions, group work, presentations, role-play and simulation exercises. I also rely on new technologies, such as virtual learning environments (Blackboard), powerpoint presentations, films, documentaries and other audiovisual resources. I am currently teaching:
- POLI11103: Comparative Government and Politics
- POLI31562: The EU in the World
- M3030: International Human RightS
- M3028: Europeanisation
