I am engaged in two major research projects: 'The Global Governance of Ideas' and 'IMF Lending and Socioeconomic Development'.
The Global Governance of Ideas: International Organisations as Agents of Policy Diffusion

IMF Lending and Socioeconomic Development
What are the social and economic consequences of IMF conditionality? Which social groups are affected the most? How do people respond to these consequences? This research deploys data from an original database of conditionality (available at IMF Monitor) to investigate the effects of IMF lending on state capacity, health policies, foreign aid, and related areas. The research also draws upon qualitative case studies of national experiences across the globe. This project is being conducted in collaboration with Alexander Kentikelenis and Lawrence King, and is funded by the Cambridge Political Economy Society Trust.
