Bio

I am an Associate Professor of Political Science at Francis Marion University, and Chair of the Department of Political Science and Geography. I hold MAs in Middle East Studies and Political Science, as well as a Ph.D. in political science, from the George Washington University.

My research is focused on the historical development of global liberalism, human rights discourses, and the use of force in world politics. My book , Liberalism and Transformation: The Global Politics of Violence and Intervention,  examines the role that ideological changes in Western liberalism have played in shaping practices of violence since the mid-nineteenth century.
