Introduction
I am an interdisciplinary scholar whose work connects international relations, development studies, energy security, and feminist-informed approaches to politics. My research centers on the nexus between politics and sociocultural contexts in international relations and develops a cross-disciplinary methodological toolkit around the concept of discursive politics.

Vladimir Putin’s regime has struggled to restore Russia’s great power status. The discourses that have emerged around Russian energy wealth play a particularly significant role in this struggle and shape Russia’s identity in international relations. These multiple and contradictory understandings of energy resources are encapsulated in the two domi...
This article presents a study of the discursive politics of the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States and Russia from its early onset to 30 April 2020. We examine how official securitisation discourses in the two countries draw on gendered constructions of national identity and discuss what linkages and potential implications they have for the sta...
This book examines the development of bilateral energy relations between China and the two oil-rich countries, Kazakhstan and Russia.
Challenging conventional assumptions about energy politics and China’s global quest for oil, this book examines the interplay of politics and sociocultural contexts. It shows how energy resources become ideas and ho...
As the Chinese state ramps up its efforts in international narrative competitions, Chinese media master new genres and test different visual languages on global social media platforms. The diverse content they produce provides a new source of information about China’s self-representations intended for foreigners and thus provides a condensed answer...
Against the backdrop of the increasing global schisms around gender equality in recent years, the discussion of Russia’s domestic anti-gender politics is coming to the fore. To date, however, little work has bridged the domestic–international divide in this discussion by thoroughly examining the interplay between Russian foreign policy, national br...
In the wake of the collapse of the Soviet Union, higher education in Central Asia started to rapidly internationalize. The work of transnational higher education institutions (THEIs), including branch campuses and schools sponsored by international organizations, allows the Central Asian states to de-monopolize and diversify sources of knowledge an...
The article explores Russia's ‘turn to the East’ and examines different and often conflicting visions of development that emerged in the process of reconstructing the Russian Far Eastern development strategy at regional and federal levels. It draws on a ‘thick’ case study of the special investment regime, Free Port Vladivostok, which exemplifies si...
This book scrutinizes the frequently ignored agency of Global South sub-national actors in their interactions with China, using a multidisciplinary approach and eleven case studies. Contributors examine China’s presence in the Global South on a country-by-country basis, analyzing how various non-state and sub-state actors are responding to the rise...
Gaining stature and influence in world affairs, rising China is becoming a test for the existing rule-based liberal order in the Global South. How does China’s rise reshapes the development of the Global South? And what model of South-South cooperation does China promote? This chapter sets the stage for the discussion of China’s presence in the Glo...
This chapter examines intersections between Russia’s China policy and the Far Eastern development strategy, with a focus on Primorye. Primorye is a particularly interesting venue for a case study of Sino-Russian interactions because it is both far from and important to Moscow. The distance between Vladivostok, the capital of Primorye, and Moscow sp...
This chapter serves as a concise general introduction to the volume, which scrutinizes the frequently ignored agency of the Global South sub-national actors in their interactions with rising China. Far from being passive recipients of Beijing-constructed images and cooperation models, these actors are fully aware of their identity and interests and...
Любые универсальные определения феминизма – как и того, что составляет феминистскую теорию, политическую стратегию и связанные с ней практики – проблематичны. Патриархальные отношения, против которых феминизм выступает, имеют разные конфигурации в зависимости от социального, экономического, культурного и политического контекста. Следовательно, суще...
С 2015 г. режим Свободного порта Владивосток (СПВ) действует на территории пяти субъектов Российской Федерации на Дальнем Востоке. Федеральные власти задумывали СПВ как особую экономическую среду, которая будет привлекать на эти территории иностранные инвестиции, передачу технологий, международный опыт, способствовать развитию предпринимательства н...
Canadian politics is alive with references to what oil means to the country and its residents. However, the existing research only intermittently and often superficially discusses how Canada recognizes itself as a petrostate and negotiates its identities in relation to oil. Seeking to fill the gap, this paper offers a nuanced, dynamic, and comprehe...
Through the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) it is obvious that China is crafting a new space for itself in the international system and becoming more assertive and confident in its international dealings, including in Eurasia, typically considered by Russia as its backyard. This raises the question of how the BRI is presented and perceived in Russia...

С середине 2000х гг. было запущено несколько амбициозных проектов, направленных на ускорение социально-экономи...

Industrial and heritage museums around the world serve as important spaces where narratives surrounding oil production are constructed, presented, and contested. These museums offer a platform to investigate the ways in which the discursive politics of oil production are curated, communicated, and interpreted by different actors, ranging from communities to oil companies. My new project will analyse the narratives of progress, power, and national identity associated with oil production and explore how museums portray oil as a symbol of technological advancement, economic prosperity, and national pride. I will be looking at oil museums in Canada, China, Russia, and Scotland.
I am not new to energy politics but have so far struggled to find literature that discusses how museums, whether industrial or heritage-focused, reinforce or challenge dominant narratives about the extractive industries and, particularly, oil extraction. Could you recommend any relevant works?
And if that's your topic, I have more questions for you!
How do museums navigate the balance between catering to different stakeholders, such as local communities, industry representatives, and environmental activists?
What is your favourite example of a museum that has been instrumental in fostering public debate and awareness about the extractive industries?
