Research Interests

My research interests are diverse and cover a range of social, urban and cultural issues. Most recently I have investigated the ways that ethnic identities are constructed and performed within the changing global context of Melbourne’s housing markets. This work aims to contribute to knowledges of urban development, citizenship, transnationalism and ethnic identity. Other research I have undertaken includes representations of sexual difference in geographical understandings of the socio-spatial world. This research questioned the silencing of women and homosexual identities in contemporary knowledges. I have also conducted research on women and political activism focussing on resident action groups in Sydney and research projects investigating groups at the economic and social margins, including young homeless women and single parents.
