In November 2021, I presented an episode of The Bunker with Una Hajdari and Professor James Ker-Lindsay about the changing political dynamics in Bosnia and the Balkans, from Dayton to Dodik, ethnic tensions in Republika Srpska, Russia, and the EU. It received critical acclaim in Politico and Britić.

During my Politics degree, I pursued interdisciplinary courses and ‘alternative’ sources, including art and testimonies, to illuminate twentieth-century cultural histories from new perspectives. Published by the Political Studies Association, my dissertation uses contemporary political satires to uniquely unpack Tito’s socialist Yugoslavia. I have been interviewed about my academic research for Britić and Lockdown Lectures, and seek to expand representation of arts and culture from the Balkans, ‘Central and Eastern Europe’, and transnational connections, including
the Non-Aligned Movement.
