My name is Nomeh Anthony Kanayo, and I am a Ph.D student at the Department of Politics and International Relations, Florida International University. My work is interdisciplinary and intersects with International Politics, Anthropology, Sociology, and History. I am interested in critical theories, decolonial theories, Global South studies, and especially Africa-China relations. Currently, I am exploring these areas, reading books, and would be happy to read new books and interview the authors.
Kanayo is a Ph.D. Candidate in International Relations at Florida International University, with research interests in Africa's diaspora relations, African-China relations, great power rivalry, and IR theories.
