I studied History, Culture, and Languages of the Near and Middle East and Political Science (BA) at the University of Hamburg, Arabic at the Higher Language Institute in Damascus, Syria, and Middle East Politics (M.Sc.) at the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), London. I earned my PhD in International Relations from the University of Hamburg. I’m a co-speaker of the thematic network “IR norms research” of the German Political Science Association.
