Research
I am a human geographer with interest in the areas of urban geography, politics of urban transformation and post-socialist transition. My research has been examining the relations and agency of various actors in urban politics. More specifically, I have been exploring conditions afecting actions of informal groups and NGOs and their position within urban governance in the city of Bratislava.
