Research Interests

I specialise in the politics of walls and fences and more recently humanitarianism and border policing. My doctoral research was undertaken at SOAS, University of London and focused on the Security/Separation Barrier in the Occupied West Bank and the resistance it engendered amongst Palestinians and Israelis.

My current research is concerned with two fields: wall and fence building in the present day and in historical context and humanitarian border policing with a regional expertise/focus on the Mediterranean and Palestine/Israel.

My work therefore broadly sits in the borderland between International Relations, Critical Security Studies and Political Geography.
