About
My research develops a critical and in-depth analysis of how central actors from China and the USA discursively constructed energy security from 2004 onwards. In particular, I'm interested in analysing the relationship between energy security discourses, (foreign) policy and bilateral relations through the adoption of a ‘critical constructivist’ approach to energy security. My thesis aims to improve understandings of energy security in US-China relations through critical analysis, to make a theoretical and empirical contribution to security studies and the emerging field of critical energy security studies.
My research interests also include critical security studies and theoretical approaches to security, as well as climate change and environmental politics.
I am a member of the BISA Postgraduate Network Executive Committee and a member of the Energy Society and Place Research Unit at the University of Birmingham.
