RESEARCH

Two lines of inquiry are ongoing. One is policy-oriented, surrounding domestic and cross-border political violence. The other is more theoretical-oriented, aiming to develop a cosmopolitan theory of global health ethics based on parochial solidaristic sentiments. My research incorporates multiple approaches, including qualitative interview and documentary analysis, quantitative surveys and experiments, and ethical analysis.
