Research interests
My research is at the intersection of Global Energy Politics, International Relations and Learning and Teaching. There are three main questions which animate my work:
- Why (should) people learn about Politics and International Relations?
- Why do some political concerns come to be regarded as security problems and what are the political effects of this 'securitisation' of politics and policy?
- How can we accelerate a global energy transition while ensuring energy security and addressing injustice?
Research groups
- International Political Economy & Development
Grants
Carnegie Research Incentives Grant 70701 - The implications of Brexit for UK crisis governance: The cases of health and energy security
Supervision
I am interested in supervising PhD projects on the politics of energy transitions and climate change, broadly defined. In particular, I welcome projects that focus on the interaction between energy transitions, climate change and the international order, or the securitisation of energy and climate issues.
Current projects
Walid Ali - Uncertainty in transition: what determines the current form of regime in Libya following the Arab Spring?
Teaching
In 2024/25 I am teaching the following courses:
