Dr Miles Tendi
Associate Professor in Politics of Africa
I joined the African Studies Centre in 2017-18. My post is a joint appointment with the Department of Politics and International Relations. Before moving to African Studies, I held a Departmental Lectureship in African Politics in the Oxford Department of International Development (QEH) from 2011 to 2017. Prior to joining the Oxford Department of International Development (QEH), I worked as a risk consultant for Control Risks (London). Thematically, I am interested in:
- Intellectuals, Society and the State
- Civil-Military Relations
- The Existence and Uses of ‘Evil’ in Politics
- Intelligence Studies
- Security Sector Reform
- Biographical Research
- Southern African Politics (especially Botswana, Zimbabwe, Madagascar, Swaziland, Lesotho)
Dr Tendi is on research leave for the academic year 2024-25 and will not be offering MSc Supervision.
