Adam Moore

I am a political geographer by training and a Professor in the Department of Geography and the International Institute at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). Broadly conceived my research concerns the political and geographical dynamics of war, militarism, and peace, or what I call conflict geographies. Topics of particular interest include geopolitics, political violence, ethnic conflict, nationalism, intrastate war, postwar peacebuilding, Southeast European politics, military labor, military contracting, and the militarization of U.S. foreign policy. I also have an interest in relational and processual theorizing of key geographical and sociological concepts such as place, scale, territoriality, and events.
