# Summary
I graduated from the EU-funded European Master of Global Studies programme in September 2021
with a focus on global processes of spatialization, nation-building and narrative ideologies.
Since then I helped produce a variety of development research literature,
with a focus on labor market policies, their effects on poverty and collective organization, and multi-dimensional inequality reduction.
I have developed a broad range of skills in data acquisition, organization and analysis,
manuscript editing and reference management,
as well as first insights into event management, teaching assistance, content creation and website management.
The range of my academic work has spanned development studies, tourism studies, social protection, American studies and security studies.
Aside from academic work I am interested in and an active proponent
of free and open software production and
creating the conditions for an open and barrier-free science production.

# Selected Courses
Global History of Development: Ideas, Actors and International Organizations
: Enabled a critical engagement with visions, ideas, critiques and reshapings of development schemes from early 20th to early 21st century. Additionally, introduced specific development actors and institutions with operational processes and visions between NGOs, international organizations, and local communities.
Introduction to International Studies & Political Economy
: Enabled theoretical perspectives on Globalisation between mainstream economic/political economy approaches and their critics and challengers. Built on those fundamental theoretical roots to apply analysis to international economic entanglements and fundamental questions of capitalist growth and its influence on social structures.
Methods for the Study of Globalisation
: Introduced methods of work in pluri- and partly postdisciplinary research environments. Special focus was put on the combination of quantitative and qualitative research, reflexivity and positionality of the research work itself, and a strong practical application of analysis methods.
Neighborhood Policies of Regional Powers as Competing Space Formats: Case Studies from Europe, Asia and Near East
: Engaged the discussion and analysis of the design of neighborhood policies. Analysis was done through theory debates concerning the construction of competing space formats and contested power structures.
Infrastructure, Empire and Nation in China and Asia (China in Globalhistorischer Perspektive)
: Discussed the relationship of empire- and nation-building with infastructural construction ambitions. Mainly using individual infrastructural projects as case study analyses between modern infrastructure rejections and techno-nationalism.
Is there a European society emerging?
: Engaged the process of European integration from a socio-political perspective, investigating its growth as one of rising transnational social integration. Main focus was provided by different dimensions of integration: European identity and trust, solidarity, transnational mobility, European citizenship, and the emergence of a European public sphere.
Introduction to the History of State Socialism in Eastern Europe
: Analyzed the history of state socialist Eastern Europe, balanced between Soviet regional dominance and global entanglements predominantly in the Global South.
Included discussion of a space of post-communist experience and memory cultures of communism as idea and state socialism as practice after 1989 and 1991.
Project Thesis: The Dimensions of Control in Capital Fixes
: A 6-month long group project resulting in a thesis output which interrogated the theoretical conception of power structures within Beverly Silver's dimensions of capital fixes. Used Amazon's warehouse shop-floors as a case study of labor power between its fracture and collective agency.
Labour in the Global Economy: Restructuring and Resistance
: Employed critical theoretical perspectives to analyze the interactions between labor and changing nature of global capitalism, focusing especially on the Global South. With focus on international political economy, transnational production, de- and reregulation of labor imparted advanced knowledge of academic debates on the nature of labor.
Middle East from a Global Perspective
: Interrogated the political, social, intellectual and cultural structures of the region and the global connections that the it to the rest of the world. With a focus provided deep empirical understanding of the complexities of the role and position of the Middle East in the world.
