Bruno De Cordier
Academic Interests:
Professor De Cordier's area of expertise and research interests include social history and social identity, the political and social role of religion (with special interest Shiism and Orthodox Christianity), humanitarian aid and - policy, and the former USSR (with a focus on Central Asia and the Caspian). In the framework of his line on humanitarian aid, he also follows-up on other relevant regions and societies (like the major crisis contexts in the Arab and African spheres and the refugee crisis-affected parts of Mediterranean Europe) as well as on 'alternative' and informal forms of humanitarian aid.
