Research

This page is an overview of my academic research, including published review essays, my doctoral thesis, related projects. It is intended to serve as a compact map for the main areas of work on this site.

Doctoral thesis

My Oxford DPhil (PhD) thesis is the main research output presented here. It examines the climate-crisis idea not only as a scientific description but also as a political and cultural formation. It defends the hypothesis that the ecological turn in society and academia responds, in part, to a perceived bankruptcy of liberalism.

A page at this site dedicated to the thesis is forthcoming. A bibliographic record and the full text of the thesis are available at Oxford’s research repository – Oxford University Research Archive (ORA) – via DOI 10.5287/ora-4rjoobkvk.
