Start date: October 2020
Research topic: Spatial variations in the attachment of meaning to political engagement.
Tom’s research examines the manifestation of neoliberalism in British society. By reinforcing examinations of British socioeconomic policy with spatial analysis of sociodemographics, inequalities, and voting outcomes, he aims to produce novel insights into attitudes and trends across different places in Britain.
Tom’s broader research interests include neoliberalism, political economy, international relations, voting, populism, social and political values, and spatial and statistical analysis, for which he predominantly uses R and QGIS.
Research supervisors: Professor Julie Macleavy, Professor David Manley
