My academic interests are primarily in the western religious traditions, especially Christianity and Islam, both historically and in the present. I have tended to focus on the interaction of religious communities, notably the theory and practice of jihad for my MA thesis and the place of the Catholic community in interwar New Zealand society for my PhD thesis. While continuing to explore these topics, I also investigate other religious issues such as fundamentalism, Religious Studies methodology, and contemporary religious tensions.
