More about Professor Dittmer

Thinking about how the past can be incorporated into the present in new, politically emancipatory ways, has the potential to unlock contemporary conflicts. My current research examines British colonial heritage and the way it is incorporated into political assemblages from the local (e.g., Gibraltar) to the global (e.g., the UNESCO World Heritage programme).Ìý

Teaching

• Overseas Field Course: Gibraltar (GEOG0063, Convenor)

Research Interests

Please contact me if you are interested in conducting PhD study in any of the following topics, or if you have an innovative and different idea in which you think I might be interested:

• Geopolitical and/or diplomatic assemblages
• Critical approaches to spaces of diplomacy and the military
• Heritage and the politics of time

Impact

In my work, I try to build up networks of interested stakeholders so that collaboration can emerge organically. At present, I am working with a range of partner organisations involved in heritage in Gibraltar, from the Gibraltar Heritage Trust to HM Government of Gibraltar to Alabaré Christian Care and Support.
