About

I am an Associate Professor in Politics, Human Rights and International Relations. I completed my PhD at Kingston University in 2006 and I have taught at Westminster University, as well as Kingston University. Previously, I completed my undergraduate and my postgraduate studies in literature and I taught in the Department of Comparative Literature at the University of Iasi, Romania. I have published on nationalism, radical right, political participation and on the politics of intolerance, focusing in particular post-communist Central and Eastern Europe. I have developed and taught on a range of modules concerned with identity politics and human rights.

Research

My research interests include nationalism and identity politics, as well as the politics of transition from communism in Eastern Europe. Growing out of my work on nationalism and the politics of exclusion, my research has recently focused on two complementary directions: migration, mobility and refugee issues, on the one hand, and issues concerning discrimination and intolerance, on the other. I have published on the extreme right, nationalism, European identity and Romanian politics. My current research project investigates agential reflexive mediation of structural conditionings and the role of social networks in the context of transnational mobility.
