My research focuses on several areas. First, how new poor (impoverished middle-class) citizens respond to external economic shocks and downward social mobility. This includes their labour market, entrepreneurial, consumer and psychological coping strategies as well as their collective self-help and protest actions. I conduct comparative work on responses to the current financial crisis in Western Europe with resistance to neoliberalism in Latin America.Secondly, my more recent work examines existing examples of workers\' self-management and the possibilities that the model poses as an alternative post-crisis production model.Thirdly, I am interested transnational labour movements, particularly with respect to how cross-border alliances are formed to resist attacks on workers\' rights due to proposed free-trade agreements.Finally I have recently started to research the impact of both personal and national debt on the deterioration of living standards and working life, especially in Greece and Western Europe.Other Academic posts:Convenor - Argentina Research Network UKChair - Jubilee Debt Campaign Academic Advisory NetworkDeputy Head - Latin American Studies Research Group, Middlesex University, London.Co-convenor - Interdisciplinary Labour Studies Research Group, Middlesex University, LondonVice-Chair - Universities and Colleges Union (UCU), Middlesex UniversityVisiting Researcher - The Social Debt Observatory, Catholic University of Argentina (2016)Associate, Centre for Enterprise and Economic Development Research (CEEDR).
