Bio

During my Ph.D. at the School of Interdisciplinary Global Studies, I have taught several introductory and upper-level courses, including Introduction to Comparative Politics, Introduction to International Relations, American Foreign Policy, and Politics of Developing Areas. In addition to a diverse teaching portfolio, my concentration is on researching the profit-making dynamics in the gig economy and their implications on collective labor organizing. In my dissertation, I look primarily at ride-hailing platforms to examine how advanced technology in the hands of capitalists facilitates more sophisticated exploitation and generation of profit compared with the earlier times. The analyses confirm the profoundly political nature of exploitation and alienation and challenging prospects of sustained labor organization. The proposed argumentation uses the Autonomist Marxist concept of 鈥渟ocial factory鈥 as a meta-framework, drawing on original ethnographic and interview data on ride-hailing Uber drivers in the gig economy.
