• Associate Professor of Modern History, Jean Duffield Fellow in Modern History, University of Oxford

I am interested primarily in the history of ideas, both social and political theory and also the history of historiography, in accordance with my research interests.

I have two related research interests: first, the interface between political ideas and English politics, ca 1850-1895; secondly, the evolution of Western European and British ideas, including historiography, from the Enlightenment to the present. My current publishing commitments centre on Max Weber.
