I explore how Habsburg and Ottoman imperial histories intersect with contemporary articulations of 'historical space' through market competitiveness, place marketing, and discourses of Europeanness." # interests: - urban history, materiality, visual methods, capitalism, socialism, Eastern Europe, Habsburg empire, Ottoman empire, Balkans education: - year: 2016 subject: Ph.D. in History institute: University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign city: Urbana, IL (USA) - year: 2008 subject: M.A. in History institute: Central European University city: Budapest (Hungary) - year: 2007 subject: B.A. in History and International Affairs institute: Lafayette College city: Easton, PA (USA) experience: - years: 2019- employer: University of California, Los Angeles job: Assistant Professor, Department of History city: Los Angeles, CA - years: 2016-19 employer: Max Planck Institute for the Study of Ethnic and Religious Diversity job: "Research Associate, Empires of Memory MPI Research Group" city: Göttingen - years: 2015-16 employer: University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign job: "Instructor (Urban History)" city: Urbana, IL - years: 2011-12 employer: University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign job: "Instructor (Global Studies)" city: Urbana, IL - years: 2010-12 employer: University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign job: "Teaching Assistant (Western Civilization)" city: Urbana, IL publications: - year: 2020 title: "What’s off-centre of empire?
