📊 Are domestic war crimes trials biased? We use Text as Data methods, using LIWC to look at judicial decisions from Serbia (1999–2019). We find conflict actor bias—paramilitary crimes are described in longer, more graphic detail, while state actors' crimes receive shorter, more neutral accounts.

It is based on 18-month-long ethnographic research (incl. traditional & digital ethnography) & 40 in-depth interviews with Serbian Londoners.

I develop a theory of national identity and concept of 'doing nation' to argue that a nation comes into being and is sustained through (mediated) everyday interpersonal communication practices & thus represents embodied cultural and discursive practices.
