Peace and Conflict

Welcome to the Peace and Conflict research cluster at the Department of Politics, University of Liverpool. We are an interdisciplinary group of staff and PhD researchers in Politics who focus on international politics broadly defined, with expertise ranging from security and conflict to nationalism, international interventions and private security actors.  Our cluster regularly engages with policy-makers and international organisations to share their expertise.

The convenor is Nicola Mathieson.

We welcome applications from potential PhD and post-doctoral researchers on our thematic research areas. To find out what we are each interested in, see the list of supervisors. Learn more about studying for a PhD in our host department, the Department of Politics.
