My name is Paul Katsivelis. I am a senior lecturer in Arabic Middle Eastern studies. My research embraces cross-disciplinary perspectives to uncover cultural, religious, political and transnational identities in the Middle East. I work also as a mentor in philosophical practice, an extra curricula activity based on special studies in existential psychology and philosophy.
