Bio/Research
Jon’s theory-building work is mapping theories of change at the interface of thinking about ‘development’ and ‘peacebuilding.’ From his doctoral thesis and subsequent fieldwork, Jon continues to investigate how citizen identity in African contexts is rooted in multiple cultures, and how these political cultures are affected by responses by individuals and groups to economic and political liberalization.
