I welcome applications in any area of systems thinking, and am particularly looking for students wanting to develop new methodologies and methods for application to 'wicked' policy problems and community development. Related areas in which I am interested in supervising include community operational research; problem structuring methods; dealing with power, conflict and marginalisation; and participatory practice. Completed PhDs I have supervised more than 30 PhD students to successful completion. Current PhD supervisions Maya Vachkova, Identity Issues in Radicalisation Pam Sydelko, The Design of Inter-Agency Organisations to Tackle Wicked Problems, with Specific Reference to International Organised Crime Alistair Smith, Clashing Understandings of the Role of the State in an Increasingly Pluralistic Society, and the Processes of Marginalisation this Produces in Local Communities Louie Gardiner, Developing the Theory and Practice of 'Subjective Empiricism' to Support Systemic Intervention.
