Farid Guliyev
I'm currently a Senior Lecturer at Khazar University in Baku. Previously, I was a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Giessen in Germany and a Fulbright Visiting Scholar at the George Washington University in Washington, DC. I hold an MA from Central European University (CEU) and a PhD in Political Science from Jacobs University Bremen, Germany. My current research interests focus on regionalism and sustainable energy transitions in central Eurasia.
My work has been published or is forthcoming in a variety of edited volumes and peer-reviewed journals such as Nationalities Papers, European Security, Democratization, Southeast European & Black Sea Studies, Caucasus Survey, Demokratizatsiya, Post-Communist Economies, Energy Policy, Journal of Eurasian Studies, Global Social Policy, and Current History, among other outlets.
