Biografia
Robert Kissack has been at IBEI since 2008. His research profile is at the intersection of the foreign policy of the European Union (EU) and international organisation. More specifically, it has centred on the EU as an actor in the multilateral system and his book Pursuing Effective Multilateralism (Palgrave 2010) was one of the first in this field. He specialises in examining the capacity of the EU to operate in many different multilateral organisations, including the ILO, FAO, UN General Assembly and Security Council, the WTO and the IMF. He is currently leading IBEI’s participation in the Horizon 2020 ENGAGE project, as well as the Jean Monnet Networks NORTIA and RENPET. He also work closely with colleagues at IBEI, including Esther Barbé, Oriol Costa and Elisabeth Johansson-Nogués in many projects on European foreign policy.
He teaches two core courses of the Masters in International Relations, (International Relations Theory and Contemporary Issues in International Relations), and Theories of International Security to the students on the Erasmus Mundus ILGSPD students. He is also Head of Studies, Coordinator of the ILGSPD Programme and Co-coordinator of the Mundus MAPP programme.
