My contribution draws on materials from Belfast's 'peace wall' murals to argue for multimodal methodologies (assessment of visual, spatial, material sources) as a way to deepen politics' critical analysis. The article is available #openaccess here:

My new article for Critical Studies on Terrorism just went online (open access), exploring how knowledge about counterterrorism’s imbrication with structural racism is routinely refused and dismissed in UK policy making https://t.co/7dd2JFyHyS

Some exciting professional news... I'll be working on SPERI's impact and engagement agenda, as well as advancing my own research on labour agency and control in agricultural supply chain governance

Get in touch if you're interested in hearing more about either!
