of Political Theory at the University of Leeds. My research interests are located within contemporary political thought and international political theory. I have contributed to pressing issues of political judgement, memory politics, transitional justice, political violence and, most recently, resistance. I am author of Rethinking Political Judgement: Arendt and Existentialism (Edinburgh University Press, 2019). My current project, titled Disappointment: Reclaiming the Unfulfilled Promise of Resistance, explores the political potentials of disappointment within the modern revolutionary tradition. Here you can access my University website and my Academia.edu and ResearchGate pages. You can also follow me on Twitter.

Displacing the lingering rationalist temptations, the book engages these thinkers’ aesthetic sensibility to delve into the experiential reality of political judgement and revivify it as a worldly, ambiguous practice. The purpose is to illustrate the prescient political significance of existentialists’ narrative imagination on two contemporary perplexities of political judgement: the problem of dirty hands and the challenge of transitional justice. This engagement reveals the distinctly resistant potential of worldly judgement in its ability to stimulate our capacities of coming to terms with and creatively confronting the tragedies of political action, rather than simply yielding to them as a necessary course of political life. The book was published in 2019 with Edinburgh University Press. You can order the book here. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62469ab675e00f6caa329c38/70481d0b-49ad-443c-aaad-a0533b73d353/check+mate.jpg Research - My current research examines the political potential of disappointment within the modern revolutionary tradition of political thought. It explores how an engagement with past disappointments can help us confront the challenges involved in resisting oppression and reanimate resistance in the present era of disillusion. In addition to existential, Marxist and postcolonial theoretical sources, I draw on practical insights from the 2011 Egyptian Revolution. For more information about the RESIST project click here.

The project seeks to foreground women’s experiences of resistance that have been neglected in dominant theories of resistance. We seek to contest a masculine imaginary that continues to take shape in a variety of forms of resistance, from armed liberation struggle, to theories of the strike and civil disobedience. Our first article born of this project is titled “Beauvoir and Lorde Confront the Honorary Man Trope: Toward a Feminist Theory of Political Resistance”. It is part of the special issue on Beyond Masculinist Myths of Resistance that we have co-edited and that is currently forthcoming with Women’s Studies International Forum. On the picture is street graffiti from the Egyptian Revolution. It depicts a woman fighting off a mass of harassers with a pepper spray. The image became a symbol of women’s resistance against sexual attacks that aimed to take away their right to participate in street action. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62469ab675e00f6caa329c38/d66aa437-ab14-40f9-9b96-9a346a7ad251/greyzone+bunker.png Research ERC Starting Grant “GREYZONE” https://www.masamrovlje.com/research-1 daily 0.75 2024-10-30 https://www.masamrovlje.com/research-1-1 daily 0.75 2024-10-30 https://www.masamrovlje.com/prospective-phds daily 0.75 2025-05-15 https://www.masamrovlje.com/home-1 daily 0.75 2025-06-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d28a8672179580001e9a780/1565972871014-J37WVTMYBCREGI4GS0Q4/profile.jpg Home https://www.masamrovlje.com/home-1/northeast-s73zk monthly 0.5 2019-08-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d28a8672179580001e9a780/1566407651732-R4YYGGRLATUK0VP97PXS/Large%2BJPG-20130731_Trade%2B100_0280.jpg Home - Northeast https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d28a8672179580001e9a780/1566407767943-7SYUBNFS7ZPFD99B4Q6I/Large%2BJPG-20130731_Trade%2B100_0328.jpg Home - Northeast Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d28a8672179580001e9a780/1563993547552-1Y789O8TBYA6SGTSJJN4/20130731_Trade+100_0307.jpg Home - Northeast https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d28a8672179580001e9a780/1563394315349-QX8L29RKW795ZF36H3UV/Large+JPG-20130731_Trade+100_0370.jpg Home - Northeast https://www.masamrovlje.com/home-1/southwest-72h8p monthly 0.5 2019-08-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d28a8672179580001e9a780/1563387092017-7MP8U1T12V4G7X1GW8GV/Large+JPG-ishimoto1.jpg Home - Southwest https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d28a8672179580001e9a780/1566407230192-GQHIWV8F0GL0CFLIVV4A/image-asset.octet-stream Home - Southwest https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d28a8672179580001e9a780/1566407279335-5NVFO4DSR8I9AFXABBES/Large%2BJPG-EmptyName%2B10.jpg Home - Southwest - Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
