Biography
I’m a Sociologist and Lecturer with many years of experience in teaching.
I joined the Abertay University in 1995 following a brief career in mainstream teaching.
My research interests are focused on the sociology of political culture and the media. I’m concerned principally with narratives and discourses of politics, conflict and war, and more generally with the social production of these as myth and propaganda.
I also have a broad interest in British and American cultural history and popular culture, and a longstanding interest in the American captivity narrative.
