Contextual politics

Sri Lanka

South Africa

I am a political geographer working on selected aspects of contextual politics in the global South. I am currently researching issues of conflict/peace, development and democratisation (especially in Sri Lanka) and politics of social movements, socio-economic rights and democratisation (especially in South Africa). This homepage presents selected writings within these themes.
