RESEARCH REFLECTIONS
Dr Alex Gath’s work spans the fields of sociocultural anthropology, psychology, and philosophy with particular emphases on religious culture as well as issues in clinical psychology and psychotherapy. As an Academic Visitor at St Antony’s, he aims to crystallise three decades of fieldwork investigating how pilgrimage practice, principally Hindu and Christian, has developed.
St Antony’s is built on an incredibly diverse and passionate global research community. In the Research Reflections series, we sit down with College Members, students and Fellows to discover the motivation behind their research and the impact they hope their work will have. Our first set of interviews has brought the spotlight onto some of our Academic Visitors.
Dr Jonathan Liljeblad’s research studies the complexities of promoting international norms in developing countries, with a focus on Indigenous rights, international human rights, and international environmental law. During his term as an Academic Visitor at St Antony’s he will be working on a monograph regarding Indigenous Rights to the Environment and a co-edited book project on Indigenous Theories of International Law .
Academic Visitor Dr Chen Xiang’s research focuses on the politics of climate change, aiming to bridge the gap between science and effective policymaking.
