My research and teaching interests lie broadly in economic and urban geography, but particularly in the political-economic and urban dimensions of migration/immigration, as well as alternative forms of economic development and international finance. I have also conducted research on issues relating to ‘globalization’, (informal) work and labor markets in cities, as well as Islamic banking and finance.
I have studied these issues in the context of the European Union, and especially France, although I am also concerned with comparative aspects of economic development and urbanization, especially between the EU and the United States.
