Some of the theorists I grapple with (in no particular order) are Marx, Fanon, Bourdieu, Foucault, Stuart Hall, and Gramsci.
I try to undertake theoretically informed research that combines historical and ethnographic approaches.
I have worked with students who study the U.S, Canada, Nepal, Germany, Malawi, Papua New Guinea, Indonesia, Cambodia,
and the Democratic Republic of Congo. However, my main area of expertise is South Africa. I spend a lot of time in Morocco
(my partner is originally from Morocco) and so have an interest in North Africa too.
In recent years I have supervised several students studying the geography of education in Toronto, and I would like to further develop work in that area.
Thus, I am particularly interested in working with students who would like to do research in the following areas:
-- Critical development studies (i.e. critical perspectives on development as a ‘project’ and the uneven development of capitalism)
-- Gender and sexuality
-- Children, education and class formation
--Heroin Addiction
If you are interested in working with me, please send me some information on yourself and also a brief outline of your project.
