Research / Scholarly interests

Yuliya researches state/society/capital complexes and their power dynamics, transnational class formation, modes of accumulation of capital, the limits of the possible embedded in them, and avenues of circumventing the latter interrogated through transnational historical materialist/Neo-Gramscian methodological perspective. Her empirical foci are: public services and policies (especially energy), political economy of Ukraine, transforming landscapes of trade regimes (mainly TTIP and TiSA) and capital accumulation spaces; and global networks of policy platforms and lobby groups.

She is a researcher at the Greenwich Political Economy Research Centre (GPERC) and the Political Economy, Governance, Finance and Accountability Institute (PEGFA; Greenwich). Yuliya is an active member of BISA-IPEG, ISA, EISA, IIPPE, ESA, CPERN, Centre for Global Political Economy (University of Sussex) and the New Politics platform (TNI).
