I am a social psychologist and member of the Discourse and Rhetoric Group at Loughborough University in the United Kingdom. I hold a psychology degree from the University of lasi, Romania. In 2005 I completed a doctoral thesis on nationalism and prejudice in talk about ethnic minorities in the Dept. of Social Sciences at Loughborough University. I lectured at the University of East London before returning to Loughborough in September 2008.
I am a member of the editorial board of Qualitative Psychology (APA journal) and several other international peer-review academic journals based in Romania, Brasil, and Germany. Some of my publications have been translated into Spanish, Hungarian and Romanian.
In 2012 I co-edited a special issue of the British Journal of Social Psychology (with Martha Augoustinos) to celebrate twenty five years of discursive psychology. More recently, I co-authored Discursive Psychology: Classic and Contemporary Issues (with Elizabeth Stokoe, Loughborough University).
My main research concern is in developing critical perspectives for understanding social and political behaviour in social and political psychology. The most recent account of this is my book Political Psychology: Critical Perspectives (out in paperback in 2015) which seeks to reinterpret and rekindle the study of traditional topics in social and political psychology. The book describes a style of doing political psychology in Europe that has developed out of dialogue with as well as critique of North American approaches. It emphasises the theoretical and methodological diversity of political psychology, by opening up and extending the study of political behaviour to a variety of socio-political contexts and manifestations of politics.
I have written extensively on the critical social psychology of prejudice and racism. This research strand centers on promoting critical alternatives to analyzing prejudice and racism in the public sphere. The central focus of this approach is on the discursive respecification of dehumanization and social exclusion as crucial aspects in the reproduction of extreme prejudice against ethnic minority groups. I explore these ideas in my latest book: The Nature of Prejudice: Society, Discrimination and Moral Exclusion (Routledge, 2015).
In my research I have also addressed issues around coming to terms with the communist past in eastern Europe, and social representations of national history. In 2012, I published in Romanian, Analiza Discursului si Reconcilierea cu Trecutul Recent (Discourse Analysis and Coming to Terms with the Recent Past) which presents a discursive approach to individual and collective reckoning with the recent communist past..
I am also interested in interdisciplinarity, and psychology's dialogue with other disciplines. I have explored the relationship between psychology and history in Psychology and History: Interdisciplinary Explorations (CUP, 2014) (with Jovan Byford, Open University).
