I have two areas of active research. The first focuses people-centric and state-centric conceptions of sovereignty at the international level and as enacted by humanitarian and military interventions. This includes civilian protection in the face of terrorist threats, post-colonial investigations of the extension of state authority by peacekeepers, the role of parallel deployments, and UN Police and countering violent extremism. My second research project investigates politics and misogyny, specifically terrorism in the form of attacks by involuntary celibates or ‘Incels’ and the importance of feminist foreign policy
