Profile Articles Activity

I specialise in the political theory of constitutional law, with a focus on issues around law and religion, Church and State, judicial power, republicanism, French political thought and the history of political thought. My latest book is Rousseau's Constitutionalism: Austerity and Republican Freedom (Hart, 2017). I am also author (with Tom Hickey of) A Political Theory of the Irish Constitution (Manchester University Press, 2015), and of Religion, Law and the Irish State (Clarus, 2012). I have also authored over thirty peer-reviewed journal articles on various issues in legal and political theory as well as constitutional law.
I studied Law and French as an undergraduate and received a PhD from University College Cork in 2010. My thesis examined how jurisdictions committed to different concepts of constitutional secularism order the competing social claims on the value of religious freedom in schools.
Subsequently I worked as a Lecturer in DCU until 2012, and in University College Dublin until 2014. I joined NUI Galway in February 2014.
