Personal profile
Research and teaching information
I research the legalisation and judicialisation of politics and the politics of international law, focusing on 1) the International Criminal Court (ICC) and other international justice institutions; 2) African government relations with international courts; and 3) transitional justice theory.
My new book studies the impact of ICC involvement on peace processes in Kenya and Uganda, The International Criminal Court and Peace Processes in Africa: Judicialising Peace (Routledge, 2018). It formulates a theory about when and how ICC involvement harms a peace process as well as when and how such international judicialisation allows a political settlement to take place.
This academic year (2018/2019) I am teaching Global Governance (BA); International Law for the Social Sciences (BA); and Case Study Methods (MA). In the autumn 2019 I will be teaching Global Human Rights (MA); and International Law for the Social Sciences (BA).
