I am a Reader (Associate Professor) in International Relations at Cardiff University in the UK. My research explores how war, and war preparedness, shape people’s daily lives and how daily life can, in turn, influence and facilitate war and other geopolitical outcomes. I am particularly interested in how cultural practices and public understandings of insecurity, military power and war can shape the prioritisation, use and perpetration of military force. I also work on the representations and experiences of children and young people in global politics.
