Nicole Pankiewicz
Assistant Professor of Political Science, College of Coastal Georgia
I have been an Assistant Professor of Political Science at the College of Coastal Georgia since 2020. I have a PhD in Government from the University of Virginia (2017), a master's degree in Mass Communication, and an MLIS. Before coming to Coastal Georgia I was at the University of Utah, and before that I spent two and a half years as a Visiting Assistant Professor at Miami University of Ohio.
My current interest in political science is the U.S. space program; I've taught a course on the space program at Miami University and at Coastal Georgia. I am working on an article about the importance of teaching the space program to college and university students, who know little about its politics and history. I advocate for the space program as an excellent focus for a political science course, no matter what subfield is being taught.
This semester (Spring 2023) I'm teaching a course on politics and science fiction in addition to teaching an introductory-level American Government course.
My dissertation research explored Americans' understanding of citizenship and what it takes to be considered a "good" citizen (the top answers in my survey research were obeying the law, paying taxes, and contributing to society).

Nicolette Manglos-Weber
Associate Professor of Religion & Society, Boston University
I am an interdisciplinary sociologist who writes and teaches about religion, politics, and social ethics from a transnational and de-colonial perspective. I've closely studied the impact of Christianity and Islam in Africa and the Diaspora, the everyday practice of religion in these communities, and the relationship of religious life to colonial and postcolonial governance. My first book showed how bonds of social trust are formed through religious membership for transnational African Evangelicals; and my current project in Uganda demonstrates how Christian and Muslim leaders create systems of community care, where neoliberal states and markets have failed. I am especially interested in stories of how religious leaders and activists are challenging, resisting, and transforming political and economic systems for the good of their communities.

In 2017 the Centre formed a new academic partnership with the University of Bolton, where it is now hosted. As well as public seminars and lectures, it has also run a programme of education and engagement in the Middle East with funding from the UK Foreign Office.
Dr Fletcher edited the book "How to be in Opposition" (Biteback, 2011), contributed a chapter to "Leaders of the Opposition from Churchill to Cameron" (Palgrave Macmillan, 2012), and his first monograph, based on his PhD thesis, is due for publication by Routledge.

I have continued working with the purple-crowned fairy-wrens ever since. For my PhD at Monash University, my research focused on the benefits of cooperation and living in social groups and explains why subordinate fairy-wrens help raise others’ offspring and defend against predators. I continued as postdoctoral research fellow at Monash University, conducting research with a conservation focus, investigating environmental impacts on breeding success and survival. My current research at Wageningen University (the Netherlands), focuses on understanding why many animals stay at home to live in social groups instead of dispersing to breed independently elsewhere.
