Personal profile
Academic Biography
I teach Social Psychology and qualitative research methods. In my research, I analyse issues such as Islamophobia, far-right/extremist discourse, and online hate speech. Specifically, I am interested in how potentially prejudicial arguments are presented as ‘reasonable’.
