David Moon

Dr Moon joined the University of Bath in 2013 as Lecturer in Politics. He was awarded his PhD from the University of Sheffield.

His research aims to combine the insights offered by contemporary political theory with the analysis of day to day politics. This research has an overarching focus upon ideological power relations within political parties operating within multi-level systems of governance. This subject is studied via a discursive analytical approach, studying actors’ rhetoric, oratory and other articulatory practices.

Current research focuses empirically upon British and UK politics, in particular the Labour Party and Welsh politics post-devolution. Further publications focus upon post-structuralist and agonist theory.
