Dominik Giese, M.Sc.

Biography

Dominik Giese is a Marie-Sklodowska Curie Action financed PhD Researcher at the Universtität Hamburg and University of Warwick. He works as part of the project ‘Globalisation, Europe & Multilateralism - Sophistication of the Transnational Order, Networks, and European Strategies’ (Gemstones). His theoretical research contributes to a growing body of literature that re-visits 20th century Classical Realism and applies this to current theoretical debates in the IR literature on regionalism and regional order. His empirical research focuses on Southeast Asia and the wider Indo-Pacific region, where he analyses security regionalism (e.g. maritime politics) through the perspective of Hans J. Morgenthau’s ‘Political Realism’.
