My research focuses on the relationship between propaganda and violence against civilians. I analyse the role propaganda played in justifying violence during the Yugoslav wars. In my doctoral thesis, I produced a model of propaganda that details the phases, functions, discourses, and techniques of propaganda that can be identified across cases. On top of that, I currently work as the Associate Research Fellow at The Henry Jackson Society, a London-based think tank. In previous years, I worked as the Manager at the Centre for International Studies at ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳, and served as a GTA for courses such as Contemporary Issues in International Relations, International Security, Genocide, Power Shift, Global Politics in the 21st Century.
During my masters degree at the University of Oxford, I analysed the role that dehumanisation plays in justifying violence against civilians, and worked as a Waynflete Intern in Politics at Magdalen College School.
During my undergraduate degree at the University of Belgrade, I worked as a GTA for Introduction to Political Theory course, have been a member of the executive board of Open communication (a non-governmental organisation in Serbia), took part in debating and won several international competitions (including European Championship in the English as a Second Language Category).
