Research

Foreign policy, security, memory and diplomacy

Actor-centred, evidence-led research combining archives, elite interviews and international-relations analysis.

Oral History

Elite interviewing is central to my research method. I use oral history alongside archival sources to reconstruct perceptions, institutional dynamics and decision-making in international relations.

06

Cold War History

Late-Cold-War diplomacy and the historical foundations of contemporary regional relationships, especially across Israel, Turkey, Iran and the United States.
