Personal profile
Research interests
My main research interests are in the areas of the sociology of culture and education, sociology of the professions and organizations. I am interested in a number of overlapping research themes including issues of equality, diversity in education, culture and the arts; formal and informal pedagogy; and in education and cultural policies; theories of democracy and social capital and their relevance to the role of education, culture and the arts in civic engagement; science and scientific knowledge in society. I approach these foci from multidisciplinary perspectives, drawing on various methods and theoretical traditions in the humanities and social sciences.
