I am currently pursuing a DPhil in Politics. My doctoral research focuses on the organisational structure of nationalist and Eurosceptic right-wing parties and their links with extra-parliamentary groups. Prior to my DPhil, I worked in political risk and management consulting for five years. I have an MSc in Comparative Political Economy and a BA in Politics and Economics.
My research interests include:
OxPeace invites applications for its three-day intensive Training Workshop on ‘Negotiating and mediating successfully in international and grassroots conflict resolution’, in person, in Oxford.
This workshop welcomes graduate students, academics, practitioners, and policy-makers, and will be limited to 30 participants. Please apply as soon as possible.
Colm Trant is a DPhil student in International Relations researching the relationship between power-sharing and conflict resolution. His doctoral project investigates whether divided societies can be reconciled through institutional designs that guarantee groups’ access to power. The project follows a mixed-methods research design, nesting qualitative case-study analysis within preliminary statistical analysis.
