Academic responsibilities

Associate Dean Learning & Teaching

Qualifications

  • BA(Hons) French & Politics, Kingston Polytechnic
  • MA Ideology and Discourse Analysis, University of Essex
  • PhD in Government, University of Essex

Teaching and learning

As Associate Dean I am no longer a member of the Politics department, but this is my subject specialism. Historically, I have delivered a number of modules on the undergraduate Global Politics and International Relations programme, specialising in political theory, the politics of identity, radical right wing populism, French political thought in general, and French fascism, liberal socialism, and socialism in particular.

Research

My research is largely on various political ideologies, analysing the political impact of ideologies as diverse as New Labour, Italian liberal socialism, French fascism,  both historic and contemporary, and radical environmentalism. There are two main foci for my current research. The first concerns the evolution of French liberal socialism from 1830 to the present; the second is on French radical right wing populism, with a particular focus on the Rassemblement National.
