I’m a Lecturer in Sociology, having joined Abertay from the University of York where I taught within the Department of Politics.
I completed my PhD in Social and Political Thought at the University of York in 2009. I also hold a BA in Education, a BA in Sociology and an MA in Political Philosophy.
My research and teaching interests cut across themes in critical social and political theory, political sociology and economic sociology/global political economy. I’m the author of two books:
