I have worked primarily in the spheres of modern British and Irish history until now. I also have a burgeoning interest in Anglo-US foreign policy and its role in the development of the modern Middle East and the politics of Islamism.ResearchResearch Interests: My research interests include Irish Republicanism and the conflict in Northern Ireland; political Islam/Islamism; and modern Egyptian history. My publications have explored the strategies and ideologies of different socio-political movements that challenge the State; the nature and function of political violence; and State responses to political insurgents. In 2014-15, I was awarded an AHRC Leadership Fellowship worth £122,000 for a project entitled 'Britain, the United States and the Muslim Brotherhood: Where “East” meets “West”’'.
