Current research:
In my research entitled "The Long Arm of Global Justice: International Accountability and Strategies of State Repression during Conflicts", I explore the effects of international criminal justice on states military, political, and discursive strategies of repression during conflicts. I am also interested in the effects on survivors and communities affected as well as those working to document abuses.
I am also looking at how corporate actors involved in the extraction of natural resources in conflict zones respond to international criminal justice and how it shapes their interplay with state actors.
The project combines a large-N analysis based on newly collected data on international criminal justice processes globally between 1989 and 2023 with a case study research on Burma/Myanmar.
Teaching:
I teach at the Bachelor level on the causes and dynamics of civil wars as well as on the links between natural resources, the environment, and armed conflicts.
