Out Now: Special issue of Sexualities on Anarchism & Sexuality
I was born an anarchist but didn't know it at the time. I enjoy reading most books about anarchism, but particularly those that deal with its relationship to utopianism, art, ecology, gender and sexuality, psychology, and revolutionary politics. One of my favorite anarchist authors is Ursula K. Le Guin. I recently edited a collection of original essays about her marvellous anarchist utopian novel, The Dispossessed. You can read more about my book here:
The New Utopian Politics of Ursula K. Le Guin's The Dispossessed
Although I did not grow up in an academic environment, I like libraries and have spent a good deal of my life studying or teaching at Universities. I earned my doctoral degree in politics at Oxford University, and have taught political and social theory at Oxford University, Ruskin College, and University Colleges Galway and Dublin.
Other interests include hiking, cycling, travelling, doing volunteer work, and meeting fellow anarchists. I currently live in Dublin, Ireland.
