Biography
I studied History and Philosophy in Trinity College Dublin, where I also concluded my PhD in History. I joined NUI Maynooth in 1997/8. I have published widely in aspects of contemporary Portuguese and Spanish history. In 2005/6 I was a Senior Visiting Fellow at the Instituto de Ciências Sociais, in the University of Lisbon, the 2012/2013 FLAD/Brown Michael Teague Visiting Professor of Portuguese and Brazilian Studies at Brown University, and a Visiting Fellow at the Keough-Naughton Institute for Irish Studies at the University of Notre Dame in 2024. I was elected to the Royal Irish Academy in 2017.
Research Interests
I am interested in contemporary Portuguese and Spanish history; the First World War and its effects; and diplomatic history in general. I published a biography of António de Oliveira Salazar, which was translated into Portuguese, being published in both Portugal and Brazil. I was the recipient of two major IRCHSS fellowships, the first in 2005-06 and the second in 2011-12. I am currently leading a project aimed at collecting, translating, editing and eventually publishing foreign diplomatic documentation about Ireland in the 20th Century.
