About
RESEARCH:-
Anthony is a currently finishing his PhD at Royal Holloway, University of London. While his research is multidisciplinary, falling within the broad areas of global studies, border studies, political geography and contemporary political theory, his particular interest deals with the complex multi-scalar relationships between borders/bordering and processes attributed to 'globalization'. More specifically he is interested in the ways in which borders are able to connect as well as divide and the different outcomes such 'connections' have on those involved in the border/ing process. Via studying borders in relation to connection - and borders and globalization generally - Anthony has an active interest in the following overlapping areas of border studies broadly put:
- General Border Theory
- Borderwork (the ability of 'ordinary people' to to construct,
maintain and dismantle borders in tangible and meaningful
ways).
- The relationships between borders and identity.
- The relationships between borders and mobility.
