My main area of research and teaching is Russian and Soviet history and the history of the Balkans (19th-21st centuries). My specialities include the history of the Cold War, regionalism in the late Soviet era and in contemporary Russia, ethnic conflict and nationalism, especially in the Caucasus and other non-Russian regions of the former Soviet Union, and Russian/Soviet energy history and energy policy. In my role as Director of the Centre for Eastern European Studies (CEES), I also deal with interdisciplinary issues and current security policy questions related to developments in Eastern Europe and, in particular, the post-Soviet space.
