My thesis focused upon the evolution of the G7 and its role in managing international order alongside an updating of contemporary 'English School' approaches to understanding world politics. This is done through a return to the 'Old School' thinking within the British Committee and early thinkers within the School (such as Coral Bell, Martin Wight, Herbert Butterfield, Hedley Bull and Adam Watson). I also have a keen interest in developing and promoting the work of Early Career Researchers through mentoring and guidance in the academic publishing process which is facilitated through my role as the Editor of Global Policy: Next Generation, an ECR focused issue of the journal Global Policy.
