Research and Teaching Interests

My research and teaching are focused on the subjects of intelligence and counterterrorism. In particular, I am interested in debates surrounding the 'new terrorism', the improvement of analytical tradecraft and the appropriate role of intelligence in a liberal democracy. Currently, I am a member of the International Association for Intelligence Education, the International Association of Crime Analysts, the British International Studies Association and the International Studies Association.
