      The book delves into the World Bank's interventions in heavily indebted African nations, focusing on governance reform and external influences on government processes. It analyzes three critical factors affecting these reforms: the results of economic liberalization, the level of political stability, and the relationships between governing elites and external agencies. Through this investigation, the author sheds light on the complexities of governance in the context of international financial support and its implications for African states.

    • Facing Britain brings together for the first time almost all important representatives of British documentary photography in a large overview exhibition outside the UK. Long forgotten and only recently rediscovered positions such as John Myers, Tish Murtha or Peter Mitchell are shown alongside works by world stars such as Martin Parr. The show thus offers a unique insight into the developments in the field of photography in the United Kingdom, which are interwoven with continental Europe and North America, but also independent of them. Exhibition: Museum Goch, Germany (27.09. - 22.11.2020) / Kunsthalle Darmstadt, Germany (04.09.2021 - 09.01.2022) / Mönchehaus Museum Goslar, Germany (20.02. - 01.05.2022) / Museum of Photography, Kraków, Poland (2022)

      Explores the ways in which African countries have experienced the neoliberal project, highlighting how this project has gone beyond economic liberalisation and towards a bolder social transformation. This book suggests that neoliberal 'progress' in Africa is notably limited in spite of the resources behind it and the lack of alternatives to it.

      Neoliberal Africa
    • This book defines what political social media is and then takes a morphological approach to investigate political ideologies and reveal the ways in which interconnected concepts are arranged. It concludes by coining the term ‘proto-ideologies’ to approach the construction of concepts that generate ideologies in the making.
