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.
