I am a lecturer in Business and Management teaching Research Methods and Marketing at European Business School London.
before joining EBSL, I worked as a Leverhulme Research Fellow at The Centre for the Study of Ethnicity and Citizenship in the
University of Bristol (2005) and as an Assistant Professor in Management at Atilim University, Ankara, Turkey (2003-2004).

My primary research interests focus on four major areas: ethnic relations, international migration, labour markets and population
studies drawing onto ethnic conflict, migration patterns and theories, segregation, ethnic and immigrant businesses,
transnationalism and reproductive health. My recent work has focused on ethnic conflict and international migration with a particular
focus on comparative studies of forced migration of ethnic minorities and transnationalism in Western Europe, UK, Turkey and Iraq. I
have also worked on comparative analyses of the Oaxacans in the US and the Kurds in Europe.

I have published a good number of research papers. These include articles in various journals such as International Migration,
Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies, Ethnic and Racial Studies, Population Review, Journal of Biosocial Science, Turkish Journal
of Population Studies, GENUS, and Siirtolaisuus-Migration; and book chapters in volumes published by ABC-Clio (which received
RUSA/ALA award for outstanding reference source), Lexington, and Tarih Vakfi Yurt Yayinlari. I have presented more than fifteen
research papers in international conferences of learned societies and associations including IUSSP, EAPS, UNU, and BSPS. My first
edited book, Internal Migration in Turkey was published by Tarih Vakfi Yurt Yayinlari in 1998 and my ethnographic work titled The
Environment of Insecurity in Turkey and the Emigration of Turkish Kurds to Germany is published by Edwin Mellen Press.
I am currently co-authoring a new book titled "Cultures of Migration" to be published by University of Texas Press in 2007

Within these pages you will also find links to demographic resources worldwide including links to population geography, ethnicity
and migration webs. If you are interested there are also pages of my amateur poetry, and Freelonia if you are into micronations.
