Alexandre Christoyannopoulos

Academic background

I grew up in Brussels, but I have lived in the UK almost continuously since 1997. I joined Canterbury's University of Kent to study economics (BA), then international relations and European studies (MA), and eventually politics and religion (PhD). I have been a Higher Education teacher since January 2005, first at the University of Kent, then also at Canterbury Christ Church University. In September 2010, I joined Loughborough University as a Lecturer in Politics and International Relations (initially Politics and History). I am a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy since July 2011. For more on my teaching experience, click here. For my university profile (including contact details), click here.

Research interests

My research interests include (in no particular order):

religious (especially Christian) anarchism and pacifism;
anarchist theory and practice, the politics of non-violence, and the connections between anarchism and pacifism;
specific thinkers such as Leo Tolstoy and Jacques Ellul;
the (theoretical and practical) relation between religion and politics (including international relations);
more generally: theology, philosophy of religion, political philosophy, political theory, and political theology.

Details of my publications (as well as current/ongoing research projects) are available here. To follow my work on Academia.edu, click here and follow the links. For specialist groups and networks I belong to, click here.
