Lancaster University

Faculty Member, Sociology

Research Associate

About

My research interests are in the following areas: geographies of expertise, transnational business elites, portable talent, cosmopolitanism, Indo-mobilities, Corporate-and Consumer-Social Responsibility (CSR and CnSR), innovation, India/South Asia, Hinduism and new religious architectures, non-transport technologies, business travel practices, and anthropology/ethnography.

Currently I am a Research Associate on a Technology and Travel project within the newly formed Transport Research Centre funded by the ESRC, the Department of Transport and the Scottish Executive. This specific project is developed jointly with UWE and Newcastle where related research is being conducted. John Urry is the Principal Investigator. The project will examine how past and future developments have and will transform travel and transport through changing non-transport technologies and social and business practices.
