Research Interests
My research explores the transformative effects that digital and AI technologies have on democratic ideals, principles, structures, and institutions. My work to date has centred on the deployment of digital and AI technologies by both public and private actors, taking domestic and global perspectives on the challenges these give rise to. My current research focuses on the notion of the ‘public’ in political theory and jurisprudential thought, and on the ways in which it is disrupted by the increasing mediation of political and legal interactions by technology.
