Dr Andrew Mumford is an Associate Professor in Politics and International Relations. His primary area of research is state responses to sub-state violence. His recent book The Counter-Insurgency Myth: The British Experience of Irregular War (Routledge, 2011) offers a macro-level history of the evolution of British responses to asymmetric insurgent threats.

His latest book is Proxy Warfare, published by Polity in spring 2013.
