Research

My research lies at the intersection of Comparative Politics and International Relations with a religion and peace studies emphasis. My regional specialization is South Asia (India, Sri Lanka, Myanmar).  I am interested in how movements and ideologies can influence domestic and foreign policy approaches. 
My work on Religious Nationalism in Contemporary South Asia is forthcoming at Cambridge University Press as part of the Elements series on religion and violence. The element draws upon my field work carrying out interviews with elites in India and Sri Lanka.
