Lecturer in Sport and Leisure Policy, University of Edinburgh My research interests lie in sport and international relations (diplomacy), sport media and communication ((post)structuralism and semiotics), and globalisation of sports. I edited (with two co-editors) "Routledge Handbook of Sport and Politics (2017)" (https://www.routledge.com/Routledge-Handbook-of-Sport-and-Politics/Bairner-Kelly-Lee/p/book/9781138792548). I am also a founding member of the Edinburgh Critical Studies in Sport (ECSS) research group (https://www.ed.ac.uk/education/rke/centres-groups/ecss). My recent research projects include 1) The Pyeongchang Winter Olympic Games and the divided Koren peninsula, and 2) East Asian geopolitics and the three sports mega-events (the 2018, 2020, and 2022 Olympics).
