Dr Shine Choi PhD
Senior Lecturer
Doctoral Supervisor School of People, Environment and PlanningMy research interest is in how an illiberal state like North Korea creates the international as a site of politics. I also study visuality and aesthetics of international politics. Two main concerns motivate my work: (1) innovations in critical methods/pedagogy; and (2) recognition of ‘non-Western’ spaces not as sources of data for Western claims to universality but as sources of theory and method. I am Associate Editor of International Feminist Journal of Politics. In 2018-2019, I am conducting research on Afro-Asian relations funded by the Social Science Research Council (SSRC, USA).
