Mahmoud Youness
Peace Studies & Political Science
Mahmoud is a doctoral candidate writing a dissertation in peace studies and political theory. The dissertation is a comparative study of Ibn Khaldun and Machiavelli.

It further argues that the understanding of these imaginaries is itself important for understanding and transforming conflict.
