Meet the PhD fellows

I am interested in the relationship between the state and religious revivals in Uganda. Particularly, the idea that the modern state is Secular is something that captures my interest.
My research areas are Political and Historical Studies. I explore how state power influences and shapes the production of knowledge in general, and history in particular.
