About
I am interested in the rationale of resistances against transnational extractive industry with special reference to developing countries. I have used mixed methods to analyse the following: role of policing, strategic framing, and ideological divergences within local, national and transnational fields of contention.
Other research interests include rural sociology and action research through theatre.
