My primary research interests are the political economy of development, postcolonial
politics and Southern African politics. 

Specific research interest include: the legacy of settler colonialism; state-business
relations and their impact on development and democratisation; the history of capitalism
in Southern Africa; relations between North and South in the global economy. 

More abstractly, I am interested in the philosophical and political origins of
development as a concept and the theoretical debates on what constitutes development as
defined by orthodox and post-development approaches to the subject.
