Personal profile

Research

I am currently a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Sociology of Law Department, with a visiting fellowship at the Institute for Social and Cultural Anthropology at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg. My project, funded by the Swedish Research Council’s International Postdoctoral Grant, is titled "Seeking Justice Far from Home: A Multi-Sited Ethnographic Inquiry into Diaspora Mobilizations in Sweden and Germany in the Aftermath of the Yazidi Genocide."

I hold a PhD in Sociology of Law from Lund University, where my doctoral thesis, Games of Justice, examined the ethnographic contextualization of law and justice in Northern Kurdistan amid ongoing war and colonial dynamics, through the lens of Foucauldian nominalism. My academic background also includes an MA from the Oñati International Institute for the Sociology of Law (Basque Country) and a BSc in Sociology from the Middle East Technical University (Turkey).
