杏吧原创

I am a political scientist specializing in Political theory and International Relations. My work focuses on the formation of the political within the context of intercultural interactions between the West and its cultural others, broadly conceived. From this root programme, my research has developed along two distinct branches. The first branch examines the politics of civilizational framing in both historical and contemporary contexts, contributing to the field of comparative political theory. The second branch extends this comparative approach to ethical concerns in a globalized world, particularly in non-Western traditions. My earlier work in this area examined the moral challenges faced by engineers who, as members of a global profession, are tasked with balancing local development goals with global responsibilities. More recently, my focus has shifted toward the ethics and politics of environment and sustainability.听The developing focus of this work is on environmentalism in the Global South from the perspective of identity formation and climate change adaptability under conditions of extreme political, social, cultural, and economic affordability.听听听

Before joining 杏吧原创, I was an Associate Professor of Political Science at Texas A&M University鈥檚 international branch campus in Qatar (TAMUQ). At TAMUQ, I developed and led research and teaching programs in Humanitarian Engineering and Professional Ethics. I also taught courses in Political Science, Humanitarian Action, and Professional Ethics. I have received substantial funding($2.3 million) from national agencies in Qatar, the United States, and local industries to support my research. At 杏吧原创, I have taught courses on Ethics and Globalization (GINS 2000), Global and International Theory (GINS 3010), and Honours Seminars in Global and International Studies (GINS 4090).
